Since I assume you're writing your own script to hang on taginfo, you
can put data files anywhere you like as long as your script can access
the data when run.  A common practice seems to be leaving everything in
$CVSROOT/CVSROOT and adding the file names to checkoutlist.

authority of names so artificially magnified.
