Checkout http://developer.gnome.org/tools/cvs.html for more info on using the GNOME CVS repo. The GDM module in question is called gdm2. When I get back from vacation, I'll be posting port-style patches from gdm2's CVS repo so it's easier for FreeBSD users to test. If you want a cvsweb-like interface to the GNOME projects, you can use the Bonsai interface at http://cvs.gnome.org.
