I want a list of everything that's changed on my project's branch, since a specified revision, but with a specified cut-off date... So, this is the command I would like to be able to run:

cvs -q rdiff -s -r v2_release_3 -r myproj_v2_release -D 2010-04-10 myproj

...but, of course CVS only wants up to 2 revisions / dates and I just get an error "rdiff aborted".
