The problem with ssh in this case is that anyone accessing CVS would need
an account on va, as I understand it. With pserver, it's only necessary to
add them to CVSROOT/passwd, and the individual doc maintainers can do
this without bothering debian-admin. As I understand it that's why the
pserver is used.
