Agreed. We'd snapshot from the core to the CE working CVS periodically. 

We cannot keep up with the rate of core changes until we get our act together. In the 
end, we shouldn't really have anything outside the core if we "do it right".

Can someone who understands the mechanics of how this works explain it? I'm not 
skilled enough in CVS to visualize the process of importing from the core, while still 
being able to track commit/update's from the CE tree.

Also, none of the developers have core CVS access now, so I do not think a branch 
would be appropriate.
