This does not work.  It only gets changes since REL7_0PATCHES was
created.

OK, thanks, I got it working with:
cvs log -d'2000-05-08 00:00:00 GMT<2000-05-29 00:00:00 GMT'cvs log -d'>2000-05-29 00:00:00 GMT' -rREL7_0_PATCHES

The first gets all change up to the branch, the second gets stuff after
the branch.  I am working on 7.0.1 release packaging now.  Sorry for the
delay.  I am just CVS messed up.
