        I was wrong, the implementation was not correct. I overlooked
the fact that anoncvs was *always* added as a member of the group 
for each project.

        I just fixed this in the backend scripts :

        * gnuscripts/sf_cvs: Update the list of groups of the anoncvs user
          to take in account the public flag of each project. Emacs is a
          special case (public + no anonymous) and will have to be fixed
          when the policy changes.

        Thanks a lot for pointing this.

        The o-rx is used to restrict viewcvs that runs as www-data
from the apache server. 

        Cheers,

P.S. Am I wrong or did you remove the reader and password file
sysadmin project yourself ? That fixes the problem too.
