Mike, We can't do a full raw mirror. There are restricted things in CVS. A raw copy of the anonymous cvs is about as close as we could do to this. I personally see little to no benefit in the additional overhead in doing that. But if you can make a case to say robbat2 and pylon for why this would be useful to our community then I'm sure we could open up a rsync of the raw anoncvs mirror. -- Ned Ludd Gentoo Linux -- gentoo-dev@gentoo.org mailing list
