Since I am working more with the linuxbios "branch" of things than the
freebios branch it isn't clear that what you suggest is a useful way to
get patches in.

...that works for me.  I will be working on a home-brew 440BX board. 
Direct CVS access may not be better than submitting patches so long as
there is an effective patch submitting process.

If commiting linuxbios into the freebios repository is taking place
during the next couple of days I should probably just wait and re-sync
when that is done.
