See below. We, btw, also still have multiple active cvs repositories used by the project, both external and internal, so claims that we don't use it anymore are not true;) I think people are working on the internal ones to fix this already. I shouldn't mention it but projetcvs still needs to be migrated somehow. I'd suggest going ahead in small steps; fix development.7, fix release man page and scripts, fix Makefile.inc1, ... in HEAD to no logner know about CVS, fix ports like freebsd-uucp to no longer depend on it, ... Once this is all done and base is basically clean, and an exp run for ports was done, come back and see. Everything else is the wrong order anyway. This will also give other a proper longer term heads-up to see how much work it'll take them. /bz -- Bjoern A. Zeeb You have to have visions! Stop bit received. Insert coin for new address family.
