AnonCVS is probably a worthy addition to the list. OpenBSD is the
first open source project to expose their repos publically. By this I
mean allowing read-only CVS access, history as it happened.

The functionally was added to GNU CVS by Theo and Chuck Cranor, and
prior to this work, you were lucky to get weekly source snapshots
with changelogs, which required manual reconstruction.

There's probably some historical significance to their work..
