I can now. I could not last night, so something is definitely fixed. Good
work. :-)

Dirk has completed the commit process to bring the cvs uptodate with
where the original /home/cvs/jakarta-commons/math cvs tree was at. He
should be applauded for this great effort on his part to assist us in
maintaining all the historical information in the tree. :-)
Please test and verify that you can checkout and build the new cvs tree
properly and contact the list if you have any issues, please also verify
that any patches you provided are still accurately reflected in the
current head of the tree.
Thanks Dirk! :-)

[math] Current CVS status
Posted by "Mark R. Diggory" <md...@latte.harvard.edu>.
Dirk Verbeck has reworked /home/cvs/jakarta-commons/math tree, which now
contains the full history from the sandbox plus two refactorings I
preformed after the move. He will be applying the rest of the changes
made from 11/1/03 to present today.
The current /home/cvs/jakarta-commons-sandbox/math cvs tree is recovered
to just prior to the deletion. We will expect to remove this sandbox
tree once the updating is complete.
We should have things stablized by later today. Sorry for any
incovenience during this process.
-Mark
