FYI: yes, http://javacvs.netbeans.org/ hosts an in-progress Java-implemented CVS client which may be license-compatible with Ant (I don't know for sure). It is in active development and is improving, so anyone interested in it should check up on it periodically (or better, offer to contribute); I am sure its authors would welcome the extra stress-testing from use in a different environment. -Jesse -- Jesse Glick <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> NetBeans, Open APIs <http://www.netbeans.org/> tel (+4202) 3300-9161 Sun Micro x49161 Praha CR
