Well, they already are tagged with -cvs.  And not in potato, only
available from my website.  I think that makes it clear they're
unofficial.

Or is that not your point?  Are you in fact saying we should make them
*more* official?  Well, I'm not going to.  0.15 is going to be released
probably within the month, and brian will package that (unless it is
passed onto his successor - I'm sorry, I forget who that was going to be).

I don't have sources available.  Hmm.  It wasn't at all clear to me that
right way to build from CVS, you see.  The best approach may be to check
out your own copy of gnome-cvs, and build from the rules file there.  That
rules file isn't quite the one I use, but I'll supply you with the diffs
if you like (or, I may well fold them into the upstream, but I'm currently
'testing' them).
