When does CVS consider a new file not new any more? A few of these files have 
been
modified and I would have thought they would have not been considered new 
anymore.

I have about 137 files that give me this message and they where all new files 
that
have been created in the last 3 months. The files only reside on the branches 
and
tags but not on the MAIN trunk.

I guess I need to move all these files to the main trunk and do this for any new
files that are created in the future on my main branch..

The joy's of learning

Thank You
John
