Sounds reasonable. I am willing to coordinate the uploads if I have a
bunch of people who do bug investigation, patches and testing. CVS looks
like a good idea. What do we need for it? 'cvs' and 'cvsweb' ? I have
never set up a CVS repository. I could install it on one of my machines.
Please give me some directions.
