You probably won't be able to find a tarball - there *should* be some |
| 41 |
way to check out the source tree directly from CVS as of the date that |
| 42 |
you are interested in - I'm not a CVS user directly, myself, so I |
| 43 |
don't know what those commands would be off the top of my head - maybe |
| 44 |
some CVS guru (or at least casual user!) could chime in here? |
