It seems that I don't need such a thing. I am using cvsup right now, and
it seems to work well... except that it's been running for more than an
hour and I only have the 'COPYRIGHT' file :-( The overseas connection is
terribly slow. At night (between 0:00 and 7:00 MET, which is 18:00 - 1:00
EST, I think) it goes better, but that way I could only get (and try) one
snapshot each day. Slow, but... I am downloading now the Jan 1st tree.
We'll see what happens.
