The latter is the fast and less risky one
which doesn't break nothing.

It's hard to decide from here when you'll have time :-)

If above ln -s thing works, the CVS  will be unavailable for 1-5 minutes
(which may just look like a local network problem at our end).
Probably sending the mail to announce a CVS downtime takes
more time to be processed in our Mailman with currently 385 subscribers
than just doing it.

I think that we all have enough patience to wait even longer
than 5 minutes. If the link idea doesn't work, we can think again.

Just my 0.02 Euro
