        Hello, Diego. I am currently (in fact, in this same moment :-) 
packaging a 
snapshot of viewvc as of 20060216.

        The effort is big, because of the way Takuo Kitame carried 
modifications to 
the package (all of them together in the .diff.gz). I already build an 
infrastructure in the main build script in order to support patches, and I am 
porting all the changes in viewcvs_0.9.2+cvs.1.0.dev.2004.07.28-4 to small 
and identifiable pieces.

        I hope to have finished in a couple of weeks.

        If you are interested in testing, I can send you preliminary packages 
when 
they are ready.

        Best regards,


                Ender.
