Hi Andrew,

thanks for your tip.

But I have one little problem with it. I will get really many directories on
the same level within CVS.
All projects and sub-projects would be lying in one directory. It would be
"nicer" if they would be in
a normal directory structure where the sub-project are within the directory
of the father project.

Does nobody have similary problems?

Ciao
   Dieter
