creating glibc-ports CVS repository?

[Alexandre Oliva <aoliva@redhat.com>]

glibc has recently been added some infrastructure to support drop-in
add-on ports.  The first such port I'm aware of is the am33/2.0 port.
I suspect the mips port may soon be required to move out of glibc,
since it doesn't even build.  I'd like to soon contribute an frv port
as well.

I was thinking we might be able to maintain them in the glibc CVS
repository, but, erhm, some recent developments made me think this
isn't going to work :-)

So I'm thinking it would be nice to create a separate CVS repository,
perhaps with its own mailing list and, perhaps, a home page.  Could we
have this set up?  I volunteer to be the project maintainer for the
time being.  I hope other maintainers of ports that can't make it to
the main glibc tree, or that get pushed out of that tree, join this
project and maintain their ports in this separate repository.

What's the procedure to get such a new project added to s.r.c?

Thanks,
