The PFS layer doesn't have a rich enough interface for even read-only
access to a revision library. It can't, for example, `stat' a file.
Write access is even harder. For exaple, `patch(1)' writes some of
the files that wind up in a revision library but patch expects a
normal filesystem.
When you say "same computer lab" -- why not use NFS?
