I tried in the beginning, but the different versions of the rcslog format
were a problem. I dropped remote access for a "better" way to get to all the
data that I needed, although parsing the files has had its drawbacks too.
The conclusion thus far has been an advantage (also note that I didn't
support cvsnt prior to CvsGraph 1.5.1).

Welcome to real - old fashioned - programming. I started using lex/yacc over
15 years ago and can't keep my hands off :-) Simply a great toolset to get
things done.
The real fun part is that the first bug-report about the cvsnt problems has
been *less* than 5 hours ago (Mon, 13 Jun 2005 19:24:08 +0200, CEST that is,
according to the mail). I already fixed 2 and am waiting for a testfile to
fix a third (will have to wait til tomorrow, I need to sleep). Anyway, I'd
never imagined that it would spark such a discussion this fast.
