grep -r "...." * is rapidly becoming a very good friend of mine ;) I just checked http://cvs.winehq.org and sure enough, there is still a very outdated CVS repository there, but I can't find a template or a PHP applet for it, just the same links you found (most in WWN issues). I've CCed Jeremy Newman because I'm guessing the site admin would have to remove it. As for redirecting to http://www.winehq.org/cvs, since that was designed as a notice page for people trying to browse the source code, I was picturing just redirecting the links to http://source.winehq.org/git and deleting http://www.winehq.org/cvs as only WWN issues and news would still have dangling links. I don't want to remove it if there's another reason for keeping it though. - Kyle

I am not opposed to removing it. We had left it up as a historical archive, or for people that were not ready to switch to GIT yet. If there is consensus then I can certainly take it down.

Ahhh, that certainly changes things. Does the server have to run a CVS instance to generate the web interface? If so, and if it's possible to somehow store the CVS data somewhere else, it might not hurt to consolidate it someday. That's really distant, low-priority stuff though. I'll remove the line from the WineHQ Todo list and make a note on the wiki SourceCode page so no one gets confused. - Kyle

Actually that doesn't use CVS, it's using a static copy. It should really use git instead, but that's a different issue. -- Alexandre Julliard julliard(a)winehq.org

please don't remove it. there's still much linking to it on the web, or hiding links, like in sourcecodes somewhere -- Best Regards, André Hentschel

OK, sounds good. I'll leave the CVS notice pages but update the links. - Kyle
