Sorry, my question wasn't clear enough.
I know the problem with removing directories and this wasn't my topic.

I meant another point:
If someone want to checkout JSynthLib he type the command:
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/jsynthlib co JSynthLib.

Now I like to move the midiprovider to an own directory in the jsynthlib path,
so a user can checkout midiprovider with a command like:
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/jsynthlib co midiprovider.

For this it's necessary to create the path /cvsroot/jsynthlib/midiprovider.
My hope was that you have an idea how to create this path resp. if this means to create a new project.

Do you have any ideas?

Yes, this was my hope. A concrete tip for making new releases.
I will take a look at the upload function in the FILE section.

Thanks and bye
