[Bioperl-l] bio-perl cvs freeze

[Scott Cain]

Hi Jason and all,

Does the fact that cvs is sticking around (read only) mean that viewcvs
(the web interface) will stick around too?  I was thinking about
modifying the GBrowse net installer to use the 'automatic' tarball of
bioperl-live to download and install via nmake on Windows since it
doesn't have cvs support built in.  Also, with cvs sticking around, I
don't need to rewrite the installer to use svn (yeah!).

Thanks,
Scott
