Hello Stoyan,

  Just 3 months behind, as the new holidays came to our land,
I've found a free night to learn about svn. I didn't get cvs2svn
working under OpenSolaris, so I imported the current source dir
to the repository using "svn" only. Surprisingly, it just worked :)

  Thus, my current development tree has at last moved to filibeto.

  I've also made a new release of Solaris packages using some
updated files.

  See this all at https://svn.sun-rays.org:4443/FLButselector/trunk

  Happy International Women's day to all the girls on the list ;)
