[rfk-dev] git outta here

Well, that didn't take long.  I now have a clean git conversion of the CVS.

However, the conversion doesn't include any release tags.  I'd like to
add them for hysterical raisins.

Inspection of the files directory suggests the following release
tarballs have been issued:

1600003_201b	2000-11-22	Uncle Pedro's Oldies Bonanza
1600003.248b	2001-02-21	MonkeyMaster Remix
1999       	2001-02-22	The Leonard R Kung Fu Grip
1.4142135.349	2003-01-27	Neale's 2000-Inch Release
1.7320508.406	2007-12-03	rfk Rises From The Dead!

"Neale's 2000-Inch Release" is easily enough identified in the
following list of commits, but I'm puzzled that I don't see a 2007
commit obviously corresponding to "rfk Rises From The Dead!"

Can anyone identify these releases among the following commits?

    I removed the casts to void because all they do is make the code look
    ugly.  They're normally used to shut lint up about throwing a value
    away.

    Initial revision
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

The next steps would look like this:

1) Enable the git repo feature on our SourceForge project.

2) Push this git conversion to it.

3) Verify that the resulting repo can be cloned, pulled from, and
pushed to.

4) Turn off the CVS feature on our SourceForge project.

5) (Optional) Register the git repo with Ohloh.

I've done this before.
