From bug 209537 comment 54:

"BTW: anonymous CVS access to mozilla-org as described in
http://www.mozilla.org/README-cvs.html is a lie."

I checked this out, and it's true.  When you try to do cvs login following the
directions given there, you get this error:

/docs: no such repository

I logged into tegu and took a look around, and /docs most definitely does exist
and does have the website content in it.  inetd is feeding all cvs connections
to cvspserversh with no parameters....   I have no clue how to the configuration
for cvspserversh works...

Reassigning to default owner/qa on endico's open bugs so I don't have to watch
her to get mail on them.

Tried to deploy cvs-mirroring of the l10n repo tonight and ran into this same
problem. :)

Over to shaver, per his email.

Anonymous access to the l10n repo is a top priority, it blocks a decent amount
of l10n work, as well adding the localizations to lxr/aviarybranch.

I'll get to this this weekend, if not tonight.
