Unfortunately that isn't acceptable :-)
It is possible to pull the full cvs tree in over a 56k modem, but
it definitely will take soo long you will lose the connection
at some point.

A cvs update will complete the process - provided you have the
root of each cvs tree present.

Maybe someone should generate a tar file that contains just
enough that cvs update will populate the tree completely.
