but as DJ mentioned, the information there is accurate.  If you get cvs 
sources from sourceforge you'll find it won't configure and you'll get 
an error message saying where to get the maintained sources.  The 
anon-cvs on gpleda.org is a copy of whats in git so it is a fine way to 
track current sources.
