Ahh, the fun of dealing with sf.net :-(
Guess why I preferred to host myself my repository for my projects here
?
More over at that time they were not even proposing SVN, and (sorry to
be crude) I find CVS so featureless, sometimes over complicated :-(

In theory as they are the result of a production process they should not
be versioned. However, we do not have that process in place yet don't we
? So I think we still need to provide them in one way or another. Again
sf.net doesn't help for ftp availability :-( 

What I could do is ask here for an MSA to add to my mondorescue server
and host what is needed here. 

Probably not the reliability of sf.net BTW, so should be mirrored
elsewhere (Lee i'll come back to you on this topic in your other mail ...
later sorry !)

I vote for a ftp access of those files. 

Bruno.
