You're right, it's possible that there exists also a Subversion repository but IIRC it was created only as test platform to convert existing files to Subversion. Don't use this SVN repository! According to http://www.debian.org/devel/website/using_cvs the current one is: cvs.debian.org:/cvs/webwml So just do (as long as you have no write access): $ cvs -d :pserver:anonym...@cvs.debian.org:/cvs/webwml login (now press enter) $ cvs -d :pserver:anonym...@cvs.debian.org:/cvs/webwml checkout webwml You can also use a graphical CVS client for this. This repository contains already a vietnamese/ directory as the Lenny announcement is already committed. > so I must not have write access for webwml. Could you please give it to > me?

Since I know you well, I will confirm that you should get an account. Nevertheless according to http://people.debian.org/~joey/misc/webwml.html you also need the approval of one of the webmasters (CC:ed). Webmasters, please grant Clytie write access for Vietnamese website translations. As far as I know her, you should expect a fully translation ready in approximately a week :-))) I suggest to contact one of our webmaster such as Matt Kraai or Frank Lichtenheld via private mail so that they help you sending an encrypted password to Joey. I know that you do not work on a Debian Linux host and may not have a PGP key to encrypt mails (such as me currently).
