Our CVS base is available read-only, using CVS pserver authentication.

In order to get the latest development code:

    bash$ export CVSROOT=":pserver:anonymous@dev.w3.org:/sources/public"
    bash$ cvs login
    (Logging in to anonymous@dev.w3.org)
    CVS password: anonymous
    bash$ cvs get validator
    cvs server: Updating validator
    cvs server: Updating validator/htdocs
    U validator/htdocs/about.html
    ...
          

Note that the latest development code may be broken at any time. If you want a working version, you should get the latest release version from the tar balls available from the source code availability page at validator.w3.org. Alternatively, you can get the latest released version, v1.0, via CVS:

    CVS password: anonymous
    bash$ cvs get -r validator-1_0-release validator
    cvs server: Updating validator
    cvs server: Updating validator/htdocs
    U validator/htdocs/about.html
