Or it could have been me.

Since I already maintain a server that has a lot of anonymous CVS
traffic, I set up a mirror of GStreamer CVS using the nightly
tarballs on SourceForge.  I'll set up a cron job to update it
nightly.  This has the added benefit of being backed up onto tapes
that are in my posession.

  cvs -d:pserver:anonymous at cvs.comedi.org:/home/sf/gstreamer login
  cvs -d:pserver:anonymous at cvs.comedi.org:/home/sf/gstreamer co <module>

I'm currently not intending to maintain this long-term, so it
may disappear without warning.  But I don't mind if people use it
until then.
