That's ok...
As far as we shouldn't "loose" too much the contact to the KDE team... 
I suggest to offer the KDE people to backup the new CVS path to allow
users the cvsup possibility from the cvsup.kde.org, too.

And I would also try to make a backup of this CVS on one of our servers,
to grant
access also from another machine.
(My hardware-limitations didn't allow to mirror the whole cvsup.kde.org
;-(, but I think the
"Potsdam"-path wouldn't be a problem for our server ;-))


Ciao
Walter
