Hi,

as you might already know, javacvs module that was used to mount built-in CVS
client into the IDE was removed from the distribution (according to "CVS
Support Unification" task planned for Promotion B, see
http://vcscore.netbeans.org/plans/planPromoB.html#unify and
http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=25139). The functionality was
moved to the CVS profile for Generic VCS framework, so the built-in client is
still there.

Therefore javacvs module (filesystem, settings, etc.) is not supported any
more.
But javacvs library (built-in client implementation) is a part of NetBeans
standard distribution and will remain supported.
Javacvs changelog generator engine will be reworked and a new version will be
put into update center.

Due to these changes, we will close all defects that are submitted in
Issuezilla for javacvs module (with the exception of library and changelog
sub-components) as WONTFIX and add the 'javacvs-last-resort-Dec-2003' marker to
status whiteboard. Enhancements/tasks/features will be evaluated and either
closed or moved to vcsgeneric module.

Issues with library and changelog sub-components will stay opened, because
they're still in the product.

Regards,
Martin
