[netnice-users] [FYI] anonymous CVS server is not working

[Takashi O. <ta...@cs...>]

as you might know, i've started using the sourceforge CVS server for
the source repository. however, it seems like that the anonymous CVS access
is not working as expected, due to some performance problem of sf.net.

actually, they are managing two CVS servers, one for developers and the
other for the anonymous access. and, they are using the developer server
as primary (allowing "commit" operation for developers), and mirroring
the data onto the secondary anonymous server (for read-only service).
however, i feel that the sync between two storage are taking more than
3 days, maybe a week, although they keep saying the sync is done on
daily-basis...

anyway, please note that the anonymous CVS server is not a good source for
the latest code. as far as i know, SSH-based CVS is working fine.
