I think that the best sollution is to syncronize now the sources, leave
pgaccess in CVS and from that moment I'll work on the "official" sources
in your CVS. I will need just a couple of hours to experiment a bit with
that strange thing (I never worked with CVS's :-( ) but, hey, it should
be a start for all, isn't it?

From that moment, the sources will be easy to update.

What do you think?
