Dunno. Most projetct don't even put configure and Makefile.in in CVS, and let people generate them. The pro of this is that we don't care about what libtool/autoconf/automake versions we have, only the release manager should take care of generating the right files for release inclusion.
The cons seems fairly obvious to me, a lot less people are able to try the CVS version, since most people won't bother doing the necessary steps to achive compilation of the sources fetched from CVS.
So it's a good time for discuss that IMO:
1) Do we include configure, Makefiles and docbook documentation in CVS
2) Do we exclude them all
3) Shouldn't we switch to subversion ? :)
(Ok, question #3 is definitely another matter :)
Cheers,
Olivier.
