Hi Roy,
have you tried to access CVS as anonymous user? Check this page, you
don't need anything special but a cvs application:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/CvsUsage
Also, I think the information on these pages is incomplete, because
you also have to export CVS_RSH environment variable. If CVS fails
with:
cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot exec rsh: No such file or directory
then you will have to export CVS_RSH variable also. For instance, do
the following on the command line:
CVSROOT=:ext:mcisback@cvs.fedoraproject.org:/cvs/docs
CVS_RSH=ssh
export CVSROOT CVS_RSH
Also, you should request membership to cvsdocs group, since
docs-common module contains some mandatory files to be created, and
you will need membership on cvsdocs group in order to create them (you
don't need cvsdocs membership if they exist for your language). See
also
http://docs.fedoraproject.org/translation-quick-start-guide/en/sn_transla....
Hope this helps!

Can anyone help please?
I want to help the translation community of Fedora, but I cannot use the CVS in command
line, I have tried username mcisback(a)l10n.redhat.com with no success, I am sponsored and
approved for cvsl10n, and approved for cla_done, cla_fedora, and unapproved for cvsdocs,
but it says I do not need a sponsor.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and sorry to waste time if it's a stupid
answer, or I've missed something signing up.
Regards
Roy Jamison
