Greetings,
 The following is hijacked from another thread, which prompts me to

After more that 25yrs of enjoying *BSD, and all it has to offer. I find
myself ever so resistant to change -- what with all the maintenance scripts,
and procedures I've created/accumulated over the years. As I'm guessing I'm
not the only one feeling this way, I'm wondering if there is still a CVS
that's still current, that I might be able to mirror, and maintain, moving
forward? Perhaps this is all folly, but this subject has been bugging me
for some time, and reading this thread prompted me to attempt to address
it.

Thank you for all your time, and consideration.
