What has been your normal approach in the absence of CVS branches?  Do
you just extract a copy of 2.2.5, copy the fix in, and remake the
packages?  I notice CVS doesn''t have a tag for any 2.2 past 2.2.1 - any
idea how i can find out where in the revision history 2.2.5 was made?

For fixes/features that I''m backporting, I typically generate a patch
from the Shorewall2 project then apply the patch to STABLE2.

The CVS STABLE2 project has the 2.2 history; there are tags for each
release.

Sorry - i was looking in the wrong place for it.  I think one of my
first major CVS activities will be deprecating Shorewall2 and STABLE2
and using branching in the main directory unless i hear opinions to
the contrary.
