Creating an ABS like CVS repository for AEGIS

We have finally got set up with our hosting solution for AEGIS and I am now looking at setting up an ABS-like CVS repository.  I'm not sure how possible this will be because it looks like the Arch CVS repo has four dedicated roots, whereas we have been assigned a module in the projects root (as I understand) it.  I imagine an ABS like approach might still be possible but I'll need some help understanding how the Arch repos have been structured vs "normal" CVS.

I don't even know if we will be able to use CVSup or not?  As I understand it you need a cvsupd at the other end.

My normal method of experimentation is kind of out here as we don't have demo cvs to play with...

I have seen cactus' SVN version so if I can get an SVN repo maybe that would help.  Also I'm sure there are other ways to have an ABS like system without using CVSup?
