AFAIK we don't have direct access to the cvs repository.  It can be don=
e
nevertheless, but is a chore.  The procedure I followed before was:
 - check out the CVSROOT dir, using the standard plplot $CVSROOT settin=
g.
 - modify the script used for sending out the log messages (mfpipe.pl) =
to do
it.  Best to test it using an existing local cvs repository, else you c=
ould
really screw things up.
 - check in mfpipe.pl
 - make a dummy commit to trigger the action
 - see if it worked
 - revert the changes to mfpipe.pl and commit it again

Have fun. :)
