[cvsnt] delete from CVS

[Dn]

Thanks Bo

  I am going to do that for every stub and skeleton I have in there.

  I tested this with one package and it looked ok

  Bo , how do I remove a sticky flag in CVSNT. I read some documents on 
how to do this using the cvs command.

IM gettting sticky tag errors when I try to commit the real java programs.

I am using WSAD

Thanks
