Since a couple of days sourceforge runs non-ssh CVS off the backup CVS server, so you see a picture that is 24 hours old. I got bitten by this yesterday.
Yes, on 13Jun I submitted a comment to the master bug they opened on CVS performance. They took both anonymous cvs and ViewCVS out of sync. https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=721915&group_id=1&atid=200001 My suggestion was to somehow provide current data to the developers on a given project. I have not as yet received a reply, though another comment was posted by Moorman requesting no more comments (though the text of the original bug requested comment :) because of the traffic generated by comments. (So I sent a private email suggesting that SF consider sending the changes to a tracker item instead of the whole item every time someone makes a comment. I'm not holding my breath.) Lately there have been a number of complaints that the anoncvs/ViewCVS is as much as 3 days out of date, including one from Bruce Sherwood for VPython. In addition, the nightly tarballs are three days out of date, at least on some projects, and they are getting many complaints on that. The SF staff has taken to answering all comments and requests by posting boilerplate. Taken in with the general web site delays and errors, it does seem like SF control over the situation is unraveling. __ KBK
