exactly. CVS and MAXIMA are way different things.
I appreciate your development and I respect the work on maxima people
already done.
And I do take into account the fact that I personally did nothing useful
to Maxima (yet?), so my opinion could be of low value to the people.
But you do should find your CVS answers elsewhere: SF site has good
documentation on this, and you can contact your colleagues directly.
I expect maxima discussion on maxima list.
With really large respect,
Vadim.
