Re: [Java-gnome-developer] New releases and maintenance branch created

[Skip C. <sco...@gm...>]

Hey there, 

I am struggling trying to get the stable release from CVS.  When I do: 
CVSROOT=":pserver:ano...@an...:/cvs/gnome" cvs -z3 co
-r MAINT_2_8 java-gnome

I get this: 
cvs [checkout aborted]: no such tag MAINT_2_8

Any ideas ?

thanks for your help, 

scoon
