Indeed, but IIUC the current setup used by Miles keeps the mapping between CVS and Arch locally on Miles's machine, so I believe that the scripts need to be changed/improved to allow multiple people to do the syncs. >> Or otherwise make it 100% automatic.

But again requires changes to the scripts. Miles, can you help out? Stefan
