[ale] CVS repository as apache DocumentRoot

[Josh Freeman]

I don't believe that will work, because what CVS stores in the
repository is the original file and the diffs, and the extension is
changed in any case. You could fix the latter problem in the httpd.conf,
but the diffs are going to be a bigger issue. 

Your best bet, then would be to write a cvs wrapper script that will
check the file back out whenever a developer checks a file in. If you
decide to go this route, email me back. I've written such a script
before, but it's a bit of a kludge. I'd probably lose what geek cred I
have if I mailed it out, but I think with some cleaning up it could be
salvaged.
