You are correct, cvs -c only gives you the modules file contents. The
other 'modules' listed on http://jakarta.apache.org/site/cvsindex.html
seem to be simple directories in the repository, and AFAIK there is no
way to get that list through cvs commands... Perhaps you could ask them
to update the modules file? :)
