Hi Willem! Thank you for your rapid reply and for making CLPython, which, I believe, should be THE proper implementation of Python!
I've done what you kindly advised me to do. Tracing gave me the following:
al@helen:~$ cvs -t -d :pserver:cvspublic@cvspublic.franz.com:/cvs-public
login -> main: Session ID is IxeXwAXJJZG5tyyt -> main loop with CVSROOT=/cvs-public Logging in to :pserver:cvspublic@cvspublic.franz.com:2401/cvs-public CVS password: -> Connecting to cvspublic.franz.com(67.207.112.67):2401. cvs [login aborted]: connect to cvspublic.franz.com(67.207.112.67):2401 failed: Connection refused
Maybe, my IP was regarded suspictious by the firewall on the server side? No idea so far. If it works for everyone else, apart from me, it should be my problem. I'll think about it a bit more. Thank you anyway!
If cvs fails again, I'll send you a zip file, okay?
Yes, if you could, please? That would be great!

Sorry for asking such a stupid question. Is there any other way to
download
the current snapshot of CLPython? I've tried "cvs -d :pserver:cvspublic@cvspublic.franz.com:/cvs-public login" with password "cvspublic", as it was recommended. However, as a result, I receive only "Connection refused" from the server. I'm not sure, whether the failure
is
at the server's side.
It is working for me. Could you please try it once again? Maybe the server at Franz was temporarily offline or something. But if it fails again, please use the trace option, -t, and send me that trace. I'll look into it then. So the commands become:
cvs -t -d :pserver:cvspublic@cvspublic.franz.com:/cvs-public login password: cvspublic cvs -t -d :pserver:cvspublic@cvspublic.franz.com:/cvs-public checkout clpython
Can anybody confirm that this cvs way works. And in the case if it doesn't, can anybody be so kind to give me a hint on any alternative way of getting CLPython. By the way, how big is it? Maybe, it can be sent via email?
If cvs fails again, I'll send you a zip file, okay?
