[slime-devel] SLIME CVS open to anonymous downloads?

So I just tried to download the latest version of SLIME via CVS but got
stopped. Looks like there is a password needed for anonymous downloads?
I followed the instructions in the SLIME user manual located at:
http://www.bluetail.com/~luke/misc/lisp/slime.pdf

Here's what happens why I try the procedure documented in section 2.2.1:

[dave at linux elisp]$ export
CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous at common-lisp.net:/project/slime/cvsroot
[dave at linux elisp]$ cvs login
Logging in to
:pserver:anonymous at common-lisp.net:2401/project/slime/cvsroot
CVS password:
cvs login: authorization failed: server common-lisp.net rejected access
to /project/slime/cvsroot for user anonymous

Now, I know this used to work a couple of months ago when I originally
downloaded SLIME from CVS.

Recommendations? Pilot error on my part, or did some permissions change
in the repository?
