Has anyone considerede that the people actually using CVS for getting the source might be somewhat overrepresented on freebsd-current? If I had to guess, the average user is using either freebsd-update or csup (or even cvsup) to update a freshly installed system. Those that need the added flexibility provided by using CVS directly should be fully able to install it using pkg_add. Personally I pkg_add screen on new systems before doing anything else. I have never considered that a problem. I use CVS myself from time to time, but I see no need for it to be in base for that reason. BTW. I think the bikeshed should be painted blue. -- Christian Laursen
