How do I get the bleeding edge, CVS versions of GNOME?

If you are developing for GNOME, or if you just want to keep more up-to-date than the latest release, you should consider using our CVS system. There is the main CVS server, which you need an account for, and a network of mirrors of the server, which anyone can read from. This network of mirrors is collectively called Anonymous CVS, and they all can be accessed at anoncvs.gnome.org (they are set up with round-robin DNS to balance out the load). If you are looking to contribute source code to the GNOME project, you will eventually want an account on the main CVS server, but get used to the Anonymous CVS system first, so you are familiar with how GNOME makes use of CVS.
