Take a look at the general freedesktop.org instructions[1].  You can
use that to checkout things like pycairo.  Alternatively, you could
find the cvs repository location in the jhbuild modules file[2].  I've
also wondered why all of the wiki tools are hidden by default, but I
believe you can change to the default moinmoin theme in your user
preferences (after you log into the wiki) and get access to all of the
normal moinmoin stuff.
