! 18: <h2>Why OpenBSD Developers Use CVS</h2>
! 19:
! 20: <p>
! 21: The Concurrent Version System (CVS) maintained by <a
! 22: href=http://www.cyclic.com>Cyclic Software</a> was selected for use by
! 23: the OpenBSD project group. With it seventy or so developers can
! 24: update over the 400MB of source code (nearly 60000 files) that
! 25: comprise the OS and its GUI. Countless OpenBSD users can download the
! 26: OS sources via <a href=http://www.openbsd.org/anoncvs.html>anonymous
! 27: CVS</a>, a procedure that is much more reliable than using Software
! 28: Upgrade Protocol (sup) which certain other systems insist on using.
! 29: <p>
! 30: Since CVS interfaces with the Secure SHell (ssh) it can provide reliable
! 31: user and host authentication. This fits in well with the OpenBSD
! 32: project's <a href=goals.html>goal of security</a>.
