I'm not a BSD person, but I can contribute one somewhat useful piece of
info:

You'd only have to check once every few months - I recently did a CVS commit
and found it was the first one in literally a year or so.  It's probably been
2-3 years since a CVS commit happened that didn't get announced to the
exmh-workers list, I think.  That's pretty low-traffic.

Would it make sense to have CVS commits auto-announced to exmh-workers? I know
other sourceforge projects have a separate -commits list, but just dropping
them to -workers isn't going to flood that list.

Then whoever is maintaining an exmh-devel port for BSD could just watch
the list, and turn the crank at their end as needed...

Does that seem a workable plan?
