Here is the latest status update:

( 2004-01-22 16:57:31 - Project CVS Service )   The SourceForge.net team is 
working to resolve outstanding problems from the hardware cutover of the 
developer CVS server. A number of project repositories are not yet present 
on the new developer CVS server or currently contain outdated data. This 
may result in messages about files or file versions in your working copy 
not being present in the repository. We have initiated a contingency plan 
to resynchronize missing/outdated data; we expect this sync to run through 
the day Friday and complete during the weekend. We regret the inconvenience 
this may cause you and your project team. At this time, we are accepting 
Support Request reports of outdated repositories and are syncing reported 
issue repositories by hand as to provide faster turnaround. During the time 
frame of this large resync, performance of developer CVS will be degraded. 
Due to the increased system load of the resync period, end of file (EOF) 
errors and SSH ssh_exchange_identification errors upon connect may be 
encountered; retrying your operation should work. Additional status updates 
will be posted as this matter is resolved. Your patience is appreciated.

I hope so!
