Well, SqCVS has been standing still for some time (but CVSTProj moves along fast, both for VW,
Dolphin and Squeak), but I have a few weeks of vacation right now so I am trying to finish it up. 
For SourceForge use it will be able to checkout but SF demands SSH for doing commits - and I have
not looked at that problem yet. I actually do not know if they just "tunnel" the pserver protocol
or whatever. The closest we could come would be to rely on an external SSH anyway. Could someone
make it a plugin? :-) :-)

Anyway, tried to check out the Unix VM just for fun (checkout and update already work so... :-) by
running:

"Test for SourceForge Squeak VM checkout"
| wc server repos |
server _ CVSServer name: 'cvs.squeak.sourceforge.net'.
repos _ CVSRepository server: server root: '/cvsroot/squeak'.
wc _ CVSStringTree repository: repos user: (CVSUser userName: 'anonymous' password: '').
wc checkoutModule: 'Unix_2.8'.
wc inspect

If this had worked I would have had an instance of a CVSStringTree (subclass of CVSWorkingCopy)
representing the file tree. BUT it did not quite work - it seems that SF sends CR+LF instead of
just LF, BUT it does not include those in the filelengths. Freaky. I have not seen this behaviour
from my CVS repository... :-)  But hey, it seems to be a small problem!

Well, just wanted to wet your appetites a bit.

regards, Göran
