Hi,

I've turned the forced read-only files feature on the boost repository
off by issuing a 'cvs watch off' command on the boost tree. This means
when you get files from the repository they will be writable by default.

Those of you who prefer read-only files will have to either set the
CVSREAD environment variable or add the -r flag to the _global_ options
in your .cvsrc file.

If you are using cvs edit you can go on doing that. Nothing has changed
in this respect.

If you want to watch files you can still do this by using cvs watch
add/remove. In this respect the command name 'cvs watch off' is really
misleading.

Please tell me if this change causes trouble for you.

Regards

Thomas
