I'll be working to consolidate some of the source files on the CVS box over the next couple of days. Pay attention and let me know immediately if something breaks. I don't foresee any issues. Right now legacy, cvs, and dist all have individual sources in them. The sources are stored by file name and md5sum, for example:
putty-0.58.tar.gz/ffb78a7db7e4802896189b2112714a9f/putty-0.58.tar.gz
A collision between the different trees is unlikely. The purpose for this consolidation is to ease the efforts of the legacy team and provide them a proper development and build environment. In the end a source tarball is a source tarball, it makes sense to store them in one spot. Currently the dist repo is 73G and the extras repo is 12G. It seems a shame to make a copy of all of that when the exact same files would be a directory away.
Send objections, comments, suggestions and consecutive unmarked-bills my way.

The biggest problem will be that the 'dist' lookaside repo is mirrored from the internal cvs server, whereas the extras lookaside is the master copy...
