        !            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>.
