CVS availability?

Is the codebase in CVS somewhere? I'm interested in helping out to develop the code in a more direct fashion than the JS style patches that are being used right now. Alex, are you the only developer? I know sourceforge has a cvs repository available.

There was not so much of contributed code so far. Maybe literally just two or three pieces. So for me JS patch can still do the job. The advantage of the patch is that you can decide yourself whether you want to apply it or not. So I feel much more comfortable to publish everything even if I disagree with the implementation (like having in mind a different approach to the same problem).

Another important consideration - the ActiveWidgets library at some point will be available under both GPL and the commercial license. This means it is not community project but rather one which has a clear code ownership and hopefully a valid business model behind. This requires me to keep the contributed code separate (from the commercial version) unless the contributor agrees to assign the copyright to ActiveWidgets Ltd.

And actually I am not using CVS but Subversion instead ;-)

BTW, does anyone is already using (or going to use) ActiveWidgets for an existing open source project?
