Full ACK.

Yes.  I've already done what people want, it is not called cvs2xxx, but 
fromcvs [1].  I don't think it is necessary to define an output format.  
Of course, that's possible, but limiting yourself to a file format means 
you're losing flexibility, which is needed for efficient, correct and 
fast repository conversion.

Hm.. interesting. I'll have a close look.
