Sorry, but sourceforge CVS is in a big mess at present -- it's not just gretl. See http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/sourceforge/ticket/20694 This problem emerged at some point yesterday. Hopefully they'll get it fixed before long, though they don't seem to do much on the weekend. The problem is not yet mentioned on the SF status page, and I haven't yet had any SF response to my support ticket, just a bunch of other developers saying "me too" in regard to their projects.

Am I right in assuming that the Windows snapshot is unaffected, and thus could be more up-to-date than my cvs built from June 30th? (Of course I could just try it out, but as I'm not normally booting into Windows i thought I'd ask first.)
