ViewCVS not working for SVN repos

Trying to solve my SVN troubles (see other thread) I tried to use 
ViewCVS to browse the SVN repos. There's a link on the page 
http://www.apache.org/dev/version-control.html that goes to 
http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/

That page however renders an error message, telling me
   "An Exception Has Occurred"
It also says
   "The Apache Software Foundation ViewCVS Subversion interface
    is currently down while we investigate a problem with ViewCVS."

Just writing to make sure that someone is aware of this.

Mario,

I wouldn't panic, it was more to do with very high loads, and as I said 
- Justin is looking at fixing it the problem in view CVS.

I'm just relaying the information as to why it is down because the 
relevant people are not on this list. If you would like more information 
I recommend you contact the infrastructure team.

Could you please explain in short what sort of problem that was?

During cvs2svn import I damaged my repository if I tried to view its 
content with ViewCVS.
I just would like to know if there is any serious problem with ViewCVS.

If so I shutdown our ViewCVS within the next second too.

This was a decision made by infrastructure as it was the cause of a 
significant number of SVN problems.

There's no current ETA, but Justin is going to have a look at fixing 
ViewCVS when he gets the time.

Cheers,
Brett
