No.  The Feb 28 announcement was only that the ports tree would no
longer be exported to CVS.  There has been no announcement about CVSup
EOL.

There was an announcement (but not on -hubs@) that the gnats/current
collection is no longer available via CVSup.  gnats is now being
distributed via rsync.

The CVSup www/current collection is still the only official distribution
method for the web site, but that may change.  Mention of this was made
on this list a couple of months ago.

I'm supposing (unless we hear otherwise) that the lack of access to
cvsup-master is a temporary restriction imposed for short-term
operational reasons.
