RE: storing helix in local cvs repository

John,

I would think that the build system is pretty agnostic of 
which CVS repository it's getting things from as long 
as the proper AddMultiCVS, AddCVS, and AddBIFPath
definitions are made in the .buildrc file.

Best place for this question would be ribosome-dev.
