Automatically generates a patch-set log from CVS check-in comments
User-defined color-coded database queries
Web-based administration of the CVSROOT/passwd file
Built-in repository browser

Very simple setup - a self-contained executable runs as CGI, from inetd, or as a stand-alone web server
Minimal memory, disk and CPU requirements - works on old hardware
Access permissions configurable separately for each user
Allows for anonymous users
Uses a built-in SQL database engine (SQLite) - no external RDBMS required
Tested under Linux - works on other versions of Unix. Also works under Windows
