Congrats on the new CVS server...

A question...
What is the preferred way for mere users to get sources
on a regular basis?

I know CVS beats on the server a bit.  Is rsync better?  cvsup?

What would you guys like to see us, who are not committers or
really developing for nbsd use?

I use cvs for openbsd and netbsd and cvsup for freebsd.  The cvs
advantage is that I can update a part of the tree (eg in just
/usr/pkgsrc/mail/) and I can see diffs (less important most of the 
time)...

(like perhaps most of the users, I'm in the US)
