CVSSource project
June 5th, 2003
In reaction to my cry for help for a Java-based WebCVS, Sylvain pointed me to CVSSource. It's weird how small and how big the world has become at the same time these days: this weblog is probably interleaving inodes with that project, but I wasn't really aware of its existence. It could as well have been on a server in Australia, with no notifiable difference for me. Which actually reminds me that I have no idea where the cocoondev.org machine physically resides. Maybe it is Australia.
Anyway, CVSSource is a Cocoon-based CVS viewer. It could still use some extra features (which, as Sylvain told me, are in the pipeline), but it does what it has to do: show the contents of a CVS repository in your browser. Even the indentation of the .java files is taken care of. Very nice job overall. If you want a Java-based browser view on your CVS repository, definitely recommended.
