[Carl Anderson <ccc@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Denis,

Was it really necessary to terminate the anonymous service?  I am just worried about the impact that that will have on WTP users who wish to get the source for the Juno release (and prior releases).  We went to the effort of putting in the appropriate Eclipse-SourceReferences information in all of our plugins, and all through the Juno release, these were set up for anonymous CVS access to our source.  Now those Eclipse-SourceReferences are useless.  Is there really no possibility of restoring the read-only anonymous access?  (And I know that WTP is not the only project that set up Eclipse-SourceReferences to CVS code- even the platform in all of its Indigo releases, has CVS Eclipse-SourceReferences.)

FWIW,

Because we've terminated the anonymous CVS service.

You can browse repos here:  http://git.eclipse.org/c

If you can't find it, then you could ask on that project's -dev list  :-)
