How to let other people join your project?

Answer:

To allow all trusted CVS users access to the repository, we will create a cvsusers group. To do this add:
cvsusers:x:4901:jiansen,tom to /etc/group to create a cvsusers group, and add jiansen and tom to it. Note, 4901 is not special, it is any number not already in use as a group id or user id - I used it because it is the default port for a CVS pserver, which creates a nice link between the two.
cd /home/jiansen
find cvs/ -exec chgrp cvsusers {} ;
find $CVSROOT -type d -exec chmod g+s {} ;
