Thanks for the info.  Actually, am not looking for a commercial GUI in 
itself (have been pretty content with WinCVS and TotoiseCVS), but thought I 
would just pass along the information I found out about how some others view 
CVSNT.

Out of curiosity though, I thought the CVS Suite was pretty much WinCVS, 
TortoiseCVS and Workspace Manager packaged into a nice easy to install / 
distribute pkg.  Apart from Workspace Manager, are the WinCVS and 
TortoiseCVS that you distribute different from the OpenSource ones?

Tx,

Eric
