If it's not already installed, it can't hurt to ask if you're allowed to install it.
t edit Is it radically different from a CGI script? 'Cause you don't have to 'specially ask to install those.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I've asked. Waiting on answer.
And it's not CGI -- it's an executable. Comes in an RPM and everything. Needs to be installed as root.

No, not the pharmacy chain.
Nor my little sister. Because my parents named her with those intials, despite the fact that we live in a CVS-store region....

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
ita, if we can't get CVS installed, what about hosting development stuff at sourceforge?

That would require being officially open source, wouldn't it? I'm not sure we're ready for that prime a time.

Fair enough.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
ita, how much source is involved? And how many developers? I've got a FreeBSD machine sitting on a DSL link with a dyndns.org domain name, but limited bandwidth and disk space. It's also not the fastest machine in the world, but it might do the trick.

Karl, have a look here. It's not much, and we're not many.

I used to run CVS just fine on a Macintosh Quadra 700 (25Mhz 68040) running NetBSD, so speed prolly isn't an issue. Bandwidth might be an issue, but I doubt it.

Sorry, ita, I was ambiguous. I can set up cvs and cvsd from the FreeBSD ports collection; I don't need source for CVS itself. I meant, how much source will we be managing for Phoenix? 100MB? Less? More?
