[EXTERNAL] Do you still need CTM?

[Tom Russo]

I stopped using CTM quite some time ago and moved over to svn, which works
fine through our firewall (the only reason I used CTM is that cvsup didn't
work through the firewall).

I had quite forgotten I was even subscribed to this announce group, which I'll
fix shortly.
