 Just now I caught another minute the CVS server
was working, so I tried, 
and I received the same error as before (WinCVS 1.3.8.1):

Logging in to

Hrm... that doesn't look right. You should be using external authentication 
via ssh, not pserver.

If you were on Unix or using Cygwin's Win32 port of the regular Unix CVS, 
I'd tell you to just follow the instructions on SF and pull a fresh source 
tree like so:

export CVS_RSH=ssh
cvs -z3 -d:ext:timwi@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/wikipedia co phase3

I don't know how to set up WinCVS for this, as I've never used it. I think 
Tarquin has used it....?

I went into my email and found that I had received 144 wiki emails. After 
collapsing from a suspected heart failure,  I discovered that many were from 
the wikitech list. Which raises three interesting questions:

1. What am suddenly doing on the wikitech list?

2. What is the wikitech list?

3. How do I get off the said wikitech list?

Oh and a fourth question thrown in in honour of my 144 wiki emails - what 
the wikitech are Timwi and Brion talking about in the above email???    :-)

OK, maybe I don't want to know, given that I am the sort of person who if I 
change a lightbulb blows every fuse in North county Dublin on a good day (on 
a bad day the lights flicker all the way to Boston!)

In other words, LEMME OUTTA HERE!!!!          :-O
