I have just replied to you about this. You have not correctly folowed
the CVS instructions.

Read my mail and get back to us if you have any further problem.

I apologise that you haven't had a quicker response. Savannah is not
a commercial system, it is run entirely by volunteers dedicating
themselves to the cause of free software. If we're slow to responsd

escalate the problem, as you are doing now.
