Yes, please, this would be great!  Providing instructions on how to
download the 4.0 CVS tree and how to build it would be really nice.
Here is a quick start just in case it is useful.

Download instructions:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

You can get the 4.0 tree like so:

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous at public.kitware.com:/cvsroot/VTK login 
password: vtk
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous at public.kitware.com:/cvsroot/VTK co VTK

You need CMake to build it. CMake is available here:
