Dear ALL, I got this ugly message while updating from CVS:
"waiting for midom's lock in /cvsroot/wikipedia/phase3/extensions/SpamBlacklist"
Any idea, who or what is "midom" ? and how to solve this problem immediately ?

Midom is Domas Mituzas. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Midom. He's "dammit" on the #mediawiki IRC channel.

Normally locks should be transient and it should go right through after a few seconds. It's possible that the anonymous CVS mirroring copied a lock file from the developer CVS to the anonymous CVS through a stroke of bad timing, leaving the stale lock file on the anonymous CVS where it didn't belong.
