  Routes, routes, routes. Point the default route via the WAIX
interface rather than the UWA one. This will take care of almost all
code. Anything that you want to use the UWA interface for (like UCS
services) route explicitly via the UWA interface.

  A CVS Service (tm)? There isn't terribly much point. People can do
this now by setting up their own repositories, and talking to them via 
ssh. All we need to do is create groups for them on demand. If you're
talking about the CVS pserver stuff, that would let you give
non-UCCans access to it (of questionable utility), but it would mean
keeping everything in the same repository, at least if you want to
access it via the pserver.
