Paul you keep spreading myths and mistruths.  I wish you'd stop.

If you had more carefully considered the proposal I've outlined in its
entirety and in its proper context you would have sees that there
clearly is not any need at all, ever, for any contact with the server in
order to enforce any arbitrary policy implementing checks for added new
files, etc.

_NO_ change to the repository is made until "cvs commit" time and the
existing commitinfo hooks are _MORE_ than sufficient by far to implement
any of the hacks you suggest some folks might need.
