I've made a quick first-cut change to ensure that people don't start 
using the CVS repository by accident. Someone else might want to replace 
the FAQ reference, though really it's asking for trouble (as we are 
currently finding out) to duplicate this type of information. Arguably 
the FAQ should reference the main web.

However, this change highlights the fact that the checkins mailing-list 
description at

   http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-checkins

is so out of date it warns that the CVS repository on cvs.python.org 
should no longer be used as we have now migrated to CVS on Sourceforge :-(

Could someone fix that?

regards
  Steve
