+          The page will find all branches in the cvs repository
+          labeled oacs-x-y, and build a repository channel for each of
+          those branches where x>=5 (so not for 4.6 and
+          earlier). Finally, it'll build another channel for HEAD,
+          which will be named after what you set in 'head_channel'
+          above.
