[chora] CVSROOT and annotations

I think we have some kind of miscommunication of the concept CVSROOT. The 
environment variable CVSROOT is /data/cvs, but there also is an directory 
CVSROOT in /data/cvs. In "chora/config/cvsroots.php" I have to define a base 
directory for a project, i.e. "/data/cvs/project1" which is under the variable 
CVSROOT. Correct?
Annotations seem to want access to the CVSROOT directory ("E Cannot 
access /data/cvs/project1/CVSROOT"), it uses the basedir of that specific 
project to find the directory CVSROOT. My guess Chora should use the 
environment variable CVSROOT or some configuration variable.

If I change the basedir of a project to "/data/cvs" the annotations work since 
Chora now tries to access "/data/cvs/CVSROOT". But using "/data/cvs" as the 
start directory will show all directories of CVS-projects in "/data/cvs" 
instead of "/data/cvs/project1".

Cheers,
