One thing that has changed is you can no longer checkout fake branch trees like "cvs co cvs/pkgs/F-7". Those modules have been disabled due to limited usefulness, frequent breakage, and rather time consuming setup in the modules file. Nor can you checkout a package branch only, such as bash-F-7. On the plus side it makes branching significantly faster and new package creation significantly faster. PackageDB will be enabled again in the next few minutes, and the ACL script will run again too. Please let us know if you experience any difficulties or seem to be missing an F-9 branch. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- All my bits are free, are yours?
