Under normal circumstances, CVS to rsync runs every half hour, with up to an hour and a half(?)'s lag depending upon which rsync mirror you use. As for commits, most of us are European or American, so there're a few hours in the day (~UTC0500) when things are really quiet, but apart from that there's no real timing. -- Ciaran McCreesh : Gentoo Developer (Vim, Shell tools, Fluxbox, Cron) Mail : ciaranm at gentoo.org Web : http://dev.gentoo.org/~ciaranm
