I asked on mailman-users and got no definative answer, and I have searched the mailman home page and everything it leads me to, but I can't find any place where the CVS is tarballed and ready to ftp.
Is there such a place?
Does anyone have any objection to my creating a CVS tarball on a daily basis and providing this service (assuming it is not already being done somewhere...)?

-------------------- snip snip -------------------- #! /bin/sh cd archives rooturl="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cvstarballs" /usr/local/bin/wget $rooturl/mailman-cvsroot.tar.gz -------------------- snip snip --------------------
This would be a good thing to do, both as a service to the community, and as a backup should SF ever go away.

Thanks, but I really wanted to go a step farther than that if I'm going to automate it.
So, here's the scoop...
Each Sunday morning at 2am, I completely remove my copy and grab a fresh copy of the entire CVS repository from SourceForge.
Every morning at 3am, I get a refresh. After each refresh, I create two files, one gzip and one bzip.
I keep both files for three days, so after we get rolling, there should always be 6 files in the directory.
You can reach these CVS files at:
ftp://ftp.linuxceptional.com/mailman
Today, there is:
ftp://ftp.linuxceptional.com/mailman/mailman-dev-001022.tar.gz ftp://ftp.linuxceptional.com/mailman/mailman-dev-001022.tar.bz2
You may include this location in your documentation. I'll leave it running for the foreseeable future.
Enjoy!

Not a copy of the repository, but a complete checkout.
Once a week:
#!/bin/bash
export
CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs.mailman.sourceforge.net:/cvs
root/mailman
cd /usr/local/plesk/apache/vhosts/linuxceptional.com/current_cvs
rm -r -f mailman
cvs checkout -P mailman
Daily:
#!/bin/bash
export
CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@cvs.mailman.sourceforge.net:/cvs
root/mailman
if [ -d
/usr/local/plesk/apache/vhosts/linuxceptional.com/current_cvs/mail
man ]; then
cd
/usr/local/plesk/apache/vhosts/linuxceptional.com/current_cvs/mail
man
cvs update -A -P -d -R
# fix up the permissions
find . -type d | xargs chmod 755
find . -type f | xargs chmod 644
fi
cd /usr/local/plesk/apache/vhosts/linuxceptional.com/current_cvs
DATE=`date +%y%m%d`
PREVDATE=`date +%y%m%d --date '1 day ago'`
PREVDATE2=`date +%y%m%d --date '2 days ago'`
PREVDATE3=`date +%y%m%d --date '3 days ago'`
rm mailman-dev-$PREVDATE3.tar.gz
rm mailman-dev-$PREVDATE3.tar.bz2
tar --gzip -cpf mailman-dev-$DATE.tar.gz mailman
tar --bzip2 -cpf mailman-dev-$DATE.tar.bz2 mailman
rm -f ../ftp/mailman/mailman-dev*
cp -p mailman-dev* ../ftp/mailman
cd /usr/local/plesk/apache/vhosts/linuxceptional.com/ftp/mailman
chown -R linux.pleskcln *
