No, the only stuff that goes in CVS before formal review are files that 
multiple developers are sharing development on.  They always go on a 
branch.  For the review, all files are supposed to get zipped up and put in 
the YahooGroups files section for easy access.

The moderators have discussed setting up a second CVS just for 
pre-submission collaboration.  That way we could keep the main CVS 
"pure".  In the long run, that is probably worth doing.
