Or cvsup (although I'm not sure of its licence...) which is more
adequate to mirroring rcs/cvs files.

But the mirroring with rsync or cvsup is only a backup solution and not
a distributed CVS solution that would allow different people to work on
the same project from different servers at the same time.

Enhancing CVS or choosing another repository solution would be required
for distributed projects hosting tools.

My 2 cents.
