I'm currently trying to use this library for a final year project. It  
took me ages to find the javadocs. I still haven't found any online,  
though have managed to generate them. From my notes:
"Used the wrong ant build file [to get the right javadocs], finally  
found the right one in netbeans-cvsclient/javacvs the javadocs ended  
up in netbeans-cvsclient/javacvs/netbeans/javadoc.

The main issue that I have at the minute is with accessing cvs  
servers through the :ext: protocol which seems to be fairly standard  
these days.

I would have to agree that there is room for improvement in the  
documentation for the library.
