It's all in CVS, but there really isn't much to it. It's just a simple
thing that inserts a comment into a database. Then a simple approval
system for people to either approve or reject a note and then a script
that generates the actual comments to be rsync'ed out to all the mirrors
every now and then. You can see it under
http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/php-master-web/
There is a schema there and in the manage/ directory the note management
stuff.
