not a good idea to use cvs for a production environment....


Generally speaking, with most packages, this is a valid statement. Most packages always seem to have "the next big thing" in an in-progress state in their CVS and the developers only clean things up for release cycles.


That's not true with HylaFAX. We try to keep CVS production-worthy. In fact, most of the systems I administer use a releatively recent copy of HylaFAX CVS HEAD.

If HylaFAX release cycles were frequent (like maybe once every couple of months or after each "worthy" commit occurs) then we wouldn't need to tell people to use CVS HEAD snapshots. But things are not that way. The releases are infrequent enough and the release cycles take long enough that this is not possible. People affected by recent developments or recent changes in libtiff or recent changes in some distribution and people wanting really new features are probably going to need to turn to CVS snapshots unless they *happen* to be so-inclined very near a release date.
