I have heard this several times, but cannot repeat the error, no matter
how hard I try... get the latest from CVS, though... see comments below.

I just did:

C:\projects\dev>cvs -d :pserver:anonymous at cvs.jdom.org:/home/cvspublic
login
(Logging in to anonymous at cvs.jdom.org)
CVS password:

C:\projects\dev>cvs -d :pserver:anonymous at cvs.jdom.org:/home/cvspublic
co jdom
cvs server: Updating jdom
U jdom/COMMITTERS.txt
U jdom/LICENSE.txt
U jdom/README.txt
U jdom/TODO.txt
U jdom/build.bat
U jdom/build.sh
U jdom/build.xml
cvs server: Updating jdom/contrib
cvs server: Updating jdom/contrib/org

and it worked great...???
