Re: CVS problems?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not suggesting not to do it, sf is basically 
unusable at this point.

I did look around at java.net though, and it would appear that each 
project is simply a module on the same cvs server/repo (/cvs on 
cvs.dev.java.net). There is no sourceforge style setup where each 
project gets its own repo, which can presumably be remapped at will to 
live on any machine in a farm. So unless I am really missing something, 
it's essentially impossible for java.net to handle increased load 
demands in the future by remapping stuff transparently. They will 
basically have to break metadata in checked out projects. Sort of 
short-sighted...
