There is another advantage to keeping the site in CVS: you avoid
segmenting the community into artificial sub-communities, or trying to
place technical barriers around social structures. There is a flat
hierarchy of trust, either you've earned it enough to get access or
you haven't. There is no temptation to give people access to the
website since it's "only the website", and anyone with CVS access
should know how interact within the project.
