No.  I did have the files under CVS, but I have been not systematic 
about it and used CVS mainly as a backup mechanism.  So the changes 
annotations are not so useful, I don't think it makes sense to keep 
this.

I have been systematic recording user-visible changes, there is a 
chapter in the manual thaat covers the changes since 4.0, and on the 
RefTeX homepage there is a link to a CHANGES file that contains also 
older changes.

Actually, the distribution on my site contains a few interesting files: 
 The Makefile, a README file, an INSTALL file, and the GPL license 
file.  I think these should
be kept in the CVS, and probably modified to reflect the new 
maintainers, and possibly different installation procedures.  Let me 
know what I can do to help.
