+
+Welcome to the CVS 1.4 Alpha release!  We thank you for taking the time to
+test this (potentially unstable) release and report bugs (ideally, with
+fixes).  To report bugs, run the "cvsbug" program and fill out the template:
+
+	$ cvsbug
+
+The "cvsbug" program is installed in the same location as the "cvs"
+program.  If your installation failed, you may need to run "cvsbug"
+directly out of the "src" directory as "src/cvsbug.sh".
+
+While we cannot promise to be responsive to said bugs, we do appreciate
+your support through this Alpha process.  Please consult the INSTALL file
+for information on tested configurations.  If you have a comment about an
+already tested configuration, or have tried CVS on a new configuration,
+please write to the above address and let us know!  Free software only
+works if we all help out.
+
+Finally, we cannot guarantee that this release will not completely wipe out
+all of your work from your system.  We do some simple testing before each
+release, but you are completely on your own.  We recommend testing this
+release on a source repository that is not critical to your work.  THIS
+SOFTWARE IS SUPPLIED COMPLETELY "AS IS".  NO WARRANTY....
+
+Thanks for your support!

+
+CVS is a freely available collection of programs that provide for software
+release and revision control functions in a UNIX environment.  It is
+designed to work on top of the RCS distribution, V4 and later.  CVS does
+understand how to parse older RCS formats, but cannot do any of the fancier
+features (like vendor branch support) without RCS branch support.
+
+Short blurb from the manual page (larger blurb is included there):
+     cvs is a front end to the  rcs(1)  revision  control  system
+     which  extends the notion of revision control from a collec-
+     tion of files in a single directory to a  hierarchical  col-
+     lection  of  directories  consisting  of revision controlled
+     files.  These directories and files can be combined together
+     to  form  a  software  release.   cvs provides the functions
+     necessary to manage these software releases and  to  control
+     the  concurrent  editing  of  source  files  among  multiple
+     software developers.
+
+And a whole lot more.  See the man/cvs.1 file for more information.
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Special note to current CVS 1.3 users:
+
+--> You can skip this section and go straight to "Installation" if you  <--
+--> have not been running any previous releases of CVS.                 <--
+
+See the ChangeLog file in this directory to find out what has changed from
+CVS 1.3.
+
+Some files have been renamed from the CVS 1.3 distribution.  If you're not
+careful, this can cause your build of CVS 1.4 to fail in strange ways.  In
+particular, be sure to remove the src/config.h file (which is now
+src/options.h), as the correct config.h file is generated automatically by
+the "configure" stage of installation (and installed in this directory).
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Installation:
+
+Please read the INSTALL file for installation instructions.  Brief summary:
+
+	$ ./configure
+	$ make
+	$ make install
+	$ cvsinit
+

+
+Mailing Lists:
+
+I have setup the following mailing list for CVS users and other interested
+parties.  I have no idea what kind of volume will be generated on this
+list.  Nor can I guarantee to personally respond to questions posted to the
+list.  Anyway, the mailing list is:
+
+	info-cvs-request@prep.ai.mit.edu
+		Requests for addition to or removal from the mailing list
+		must be sent to this address.  Problems with the list
+		(like bounced mail) should also be sent here.  Please be
+		specific about your email address.
+
+	info-cvs@prep.ai.mit.edu
+		Questions, bugs, porting problems, hints, or whatever
+		can be sent to this address.  A Frequently Asked Questions
+		(FAQ) my be available from host "think.com" in the
+		"/pub/cvs" directory.  Please consult the FAQ before
+		sending questions to info-cvs.  DO NOT SEND ADDITION AND
+		REMOVAL REQUESTS TO THIS ALIAS.

+
+The conflict-resolution algorithms and much of the administrative file
+definitions of CVS were based on the original package written by Dick Grune
+at Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam <dick@cs.vu.nl>, and posted to
+comp.sources.unix in the volume 6 release sometime in 1986.  This original
+version was a collection of shell scripts.  I am thankful that Dick made
+his work available.
+
+Brian Berliner from Prisma, Inc. (now at Sun Microsystems, Inc.)
+<berliner@sun.com> converted the original CVS shell scripts into reasonably
+fast C and added many, many features to support software release control
+functions.  See the manual page in the "man" directory.  A copy of the
+USENIX article presented at the Winter 1990 USENIX Conference, Washington
+D.C., is included in the "doc" directory.
+
+Jeff Polk from BSDI <polk@bsdi.com> converted the CVS 1.2
+sources into much more readable and maintainable C code.  He also added a
+whole lot of functionality and modularity to the code in the process.
+See the ChangeLog file.
+
+david d `zoo' zuhn <zoo@armadillo.com> contributed the working base code
+for CVS 1.4 Alpha.  His work carries on from work done by K. Richard Pixley
+and others at Cygnus Support.  The CVS 1.4 upgrade is due in large part to
+Zoo's efforts.
+
+David G. Grubbs <dgg@odi.com> contributed the CVS "history" and "release"
+commands.  As well as the ever-so-useful "-n" option of CVS which tells CVS
+to show what it would do, without actually doing it.  He also contributed
+support for the .cvsignore file.
+
+The Free Software Foundation (GNU) contributed most of the portability
+framework that CVS now uses.  This can be found in the "configure" script,
+the Makefile's, and basically most of the "lib" directory.
+
+K. Richard Pixley, Cygnus Support <rich@cygnus.com> contributed many bug
+fixes/enhancement as well as completing early reviews of the CVS 1.3 manual
+pages.
+
+Roland Pesch, then of Cygnus Support <roland@wrs.com> contributed brand new
+cvs(1) and cvs(5) manual pages.  We should all thank him for saving us from
+my poor use of our language!
+
+Paul Sander, HaL Computer Systems, Inc. <paul@hal.com> wrote and
+contributed the code in lib/sighandle.c.  I added support for POSIX, BSD,
+and non-POSIX/non-BSD systems.
+
+In addition to the above contributors, the following Beta testers deserve
+special mention for their support.  If I have left off your name, I
+apologize.  Just write to me and let me know!
