CVSToys
CVSToys is a collection of companion tools for the Concurrent Versions System, better known as CVS. It currently contains FreshCVS, which performs actions in response to a commit. Actions include notification by various methods, updating a working copy, and rsync'ing to backup. Another key feature of FreshCVS notifications is that you receive one per commit, not one for each directory of the commit as loginfo-triggered scripts are prone to do. FreshCVS is extensible with Python, and notifications may be published by a Perspective Broker network service, allowing 3rd party clients to listen in.

Release Notes: This release concentrates on appeasing the deprecation warnings from recent versions of Twisted. There is also a bugfix with security implications for sites using CVSToys with CVS-only accounts. (For situations where the committer has unrestricted shell access, there is no security concern, just a bugfix for an uncommon corner case.)
