Hi,

I've set up an anonymous read-only CVS server which includes the
freetds-repository. The file is being fetched at 6am (CET) and is used
to reconstruct the CVS repository.

You can use it with

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxx:/home/cvs/mirror/freetds co .

Unfortunately the file offered by Sourceforge seems to be one or two
days behind the "real" repository (at least it has been like that since
Sunday).
