I have massive problems with CVS on SF.net as well. it's totally useless
and unbelievably frustrated...SourceForge is so screwed up that the
anonymous cvs checkouts we get usually are from the backup server, and are
delayed up to 24 hours. I can only imagine you don't have this problem
with GAIM because GAIM is sourceforge's #1 project and maybe they give
those guys some preferencial treatment as a result.

I would like to mention that if you guys are seriously looking for a new
place to move to, since this is a GPL project you should check out
http://savannah.nongnu.org/ , which is basically a sourceforge-esque type
web-interface/CVS repository for non-GNU GPL projects. You guys qualify.

Frustrated,
Alex Perez
