<h2>What is CVSweb?</h2>
<p>CVSweb is a WWW interface for CVS repositories with which you
can browse a file hierarchy on your browser to view each file's
revision history in a very handy manner.</p>
<p>CVSweb was originally written by &a.fenner; for the FreeBSD
Project, and instantly won great popularity among software
developers for its usability.</p>

<p>FreeBSD-CVSweb, formerly known as knu-CVSweb, is an enhanced
version of CVSweb based on Henner Zeller's CVSweb, which is an extended
version of the original CVSweb.
&a.knu; made numerous cleanups, bug-fixes, security enhancements and
feature improvements over the version and brought it back where it was
born. Ville Skytt&auml; continued that work; the project was most
recently maintained by Jonathan Noack.</p>
