[Mod-pubsub-developer] Re: CVS permissions for new kn_apps folder

[Asynch M. <asy...@ho...>]

I hate WinCVS, CVS, SSH and all that crap.

SourceForge doesn't allow straight CVS access - it isn't secure enough.
So you have to use SSH - and correctly configure it, and then configure
WinCVS to use it instead of talking directly to SourceForge. And WinCVS is
super flaky with respect to actually using the setting you set.

This happens every time I hook up to a new project, whether its KnowNow,
Apache or SourceForge. KnowNow even required that I generate an RSA public
key & somehow magically get it installed on the server. Kind of a catch 22.
I could try that with SourceForge too, but there aren't that many hours in
the day, and in the end I just don't care.

I give up. All this bullshit to upload four text files. What has the world
come to...or rather what hasn't it left behind.

here's the four files. If the attachments make it though the byzantine
coagulation of software - that just might be too easy to communicate -
somebody else can add the stuff.
