I would love to see CVS user based authentication as already used on
master.php.net, bugs.php.net, pear.php.net, etc.
Great! you agree with me. The bad part is that we need a copy of the
passwords of devellopers.
AFAIK, this is done by getting the /fetch/cvspasswd.php on the master
server. But we need the password :)
Of course they will not give us the password, so....
Gabor, me idea was: you talk with systems@ and ask for the password. Then
you would fetch the usernames/passwords to your pc. Then you would import
them to a sqlite DB and upload it to the server. That table would have also
the name, country, etc.. for each cvs account.
Why do you need all this ? Just ask them to login from master.php.net, they will
have the magic cookie enabled and we won't need any pasword. What am I missing ?
