How do I get a Worldforge CVS account?

Please send email to the CVS Account email address providing a username you wish to use (lowercase and no more than 8 characters), and a unix crypt password for your cvs login. You don’t need a CVS account if you only want to download code and play with it. See the anonymous cvs user faq answer to just do that. If you intend on contributing, then you should get an account. To crypt a password, either: • run mkpasswd PASSWORD SALT • run perl -e ‘print crypt (“PASSWORD”, “SALT”);’ • Go onto WorldForge IRC and /msg brenda crypt PASSWORD:SALT In all of these cases, PASSWORD is your password, and SALT is two random characters. You don’t have to remember your crypted password after you send it off.
