Fine with me.

Not immediately, but the problem with CVS is nobody is interested in
maintaining it while there are lots of developers working on alternatives
such as subversion.  Thus, I would be quite surprised if we hadn't moved to
subversion or some other alternative within the next two years.  If somebody
is interested in using the conversion tool to convert our CVS repository to
subversion, and then testing the result to see how well it could reproduce
our complete CVS ChangeLog and some of our historical releases (essential
tests that the history in our CVS was converted properly), that would
be great.
