They are currently not available for the public. I can't make any  
definitive announcements on what we will do and not do but I do recall  
talking about it with one of the others. What I will say is that it is  
certainly not inconceivable to do so - it's just a matter of putting it  
all into a public repository like we did for the expl3 code and the  
xpackages. However I've been told by someone knowledgable that Subversion  
is better suited for anonymous read-only access than the CVS setup we  
currently have.

Indeedy. I'll talk to the others.
