And in the config files, change:

to
./software   arch://address@hidden/dists--devo--3.0
(with an absent protocol defaulting to 'arch')

Thus allowing
./something  cvs:address@hidden:/cvsroot/thing -r tag module

I think this would be very useful to:
extract some cruft from the core
generalise the configuration management features

This is kind of neat, I've got libraries hosted at sourceforge that I kind of have to keep in their CVS due to other developers. Being able to pull from that tree could be useful for ``hybrid'' projects.
