Alex, I fully agree.
I wanted to start importing right now, but I can't seem to login to
the CVS repository to checkout the latest version. Since I don't want
to bother with CVS anymore, could someone send me a freshly checked
out copy of the entire CVS repository (in a .zip archive if possible)?
Thanks!
Peter
