Hmm, CVS web access is no use when trying to get _all_ the sources.
Sure, I could probably write some scraper for the web interface, but it
is probably not sensible ;)

In the old CVS web interface there was the possibility to create and
download a tarball on the fly. But AFAICS the new interface doesn't have
this.

If you don't want to provide anonymous CVS access, please consider
creating daily source tarballs again.

Gruesse,
