Do I have sufficient access to do this? I'm not a BSD afficiondo anyhow, so perhaps its best if I say 'install the bzr port' as long as its at version 1.0 now. (If its not we can just install by hand). Same for loggerhead which a trivial apache redirect can feed requests to.

Lets list them: - generate a patch for a commit - get a mirror of the development source to hack on - make a new branch to hack on - commit something which has been developed back to trunk - cherry pick something back to an older release using CVS - cherry pick something back to an older release using bzr. - others ? > Most of the other VCS related "infrastructure" we have is just to work > around the shortcomings of CVS. Like the list of patches?

Not a requirement however. I'd *prefer* to set an expectation about a switchover time and switch & disable the CVS mirrors; because the higher fidelity of a VCS that does renames etc makes correct mirroring into CVS really annoying. -Rob -- GPG key available at: <http://www.robertcollins.net/keys.txt>.
