Re: [Savannah-hackers] dgde project CVS repository access denied

[Sylvain Beucler]

Hi,

Project 'dgdp' is set as private. This means viewcvs will refuse to
show any page. ViewCVS is separate from Savane, hence does not use its
authentication system. This may change if Treegrou comes out.

As for the permission denied problem, our permissions layout does not
let you list the top-directory of a private project, who ever you
are. We do not feel ok with some part of the CVS repositories
permissions, so we will certainly change that when introducing GNU
Arch. Meanwhile, you should be able to checkout each module
independently.
