Other means of accessing CVS
-At this stage there are no other means of CVS
-access, although CVSup support will hopefully be provided in the future.
+We currently provide CVSup access to the repository, either for mirroring or
+for maintaining an up-to-date local copy. You will probably want to create a
+supfile that looks something like this;
+
+
+*default host=cvsup.i-scream.org.uk
+*default base=/home/user/sup
+*default prefix=/home/user/i-scream
+*default release=cvs
+*default delete use-rel-suffix
+*default compress
+i-scream.source tag=.
+
+
+The last item in that list is the collection you which to get. The collection
+"i-scream" is simply the whole repository, and is best used with no
+tag specified for mirroring. It is most likely that you will want to do that
+given above, which gets the latest copy of the i-scream source code.
+
+CVS Statistics
+
+There are some statistics available on the cms module of the CVS
+repository, generated by cvsstat,
+that allow you to see the progress of development. They're not that exciting,
+but do show when the work was done.
