That means you assume I'm constantly connected to the net. I've got a local CVS
repository so that I don't _need_ to be connected to the net all the time (e.g.
on vacation). Show me an easy way to sync CVS repositories and we're in business.

This sounds to me like that the DDP thinks it "owns" the DebianDoc-SGML manual.
I don't agree. The manual is a part of the DebianDoc-SGML package which IMHO
means that I've got something to say about whether the sources have to be put in
the DDP CVS repository or not.
Nowhere it is stated that each and every piece of documentation in Debian is
owned by the DDP. I was involved in the DDP more or less from day 1, so I would
know if that were the case.
Thanks,
Ardo
