It is available even using anonymous cvs, see the follwing description.

First of all, even with the pserver method you need to logon first:
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous at cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/typo3 login
Leave the password empty.

Now you can proceed and checkout the sources of the TYPO3core module:
cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous at cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/typo3 co TYPO3core

Using the pserver method to ckeckout the TYPO3core sources you will not have 
the possibility to commit changes you might apply to the source.

A simple shell command reveals the existence of the file CVSreadme.txt.

andreaso at legolas:~/tmp/cvs_test/TYPO3core> ls
CVS  CVSreadme.txt  TODO.txt  changelog.txt  misc  t3lib  typo3

andreaso at legolas:~/tmp/cvs_test/TYPO3core> cvs log CVSreadme.txt

*** empty log message ***
=============================================================================

Looking at the above log entry of CVSreadme.txt shows that this file did 
already exist when it was claimed missing.


Cheers,
Andreas
