This may not be the right forum to surface this admin issue, so please
redirect me if it's appropriate.

I was just updating my boost cvs sandbox:

[mark_at_laguna06 boost_current_cvs]$ cat CVS/Root
:pserver:anonymous_at_[hidden]:/cvsroot/boost
[mark_at_laguna06 boost_current_cvs]$ cvs -z3 -q up -d -P

and have gotten

cvs update: [18:42:34] waiting for agurtovoy's lock in
/cvsroot/boost/boost/libs/utility/tmpw2001-paper

...

cvs update: [19:24:11] waiting for agurtovoy's lock in
/cvsroot/boost/boost/libs/utility/tmpw2001-paper

I'm not used to a cvs lock blocking for 40 minutes unless it's toasted.

Can anyone help?

Regards,
Mark
