In fact, I am currently using Bazaar's cvsps-import plugin to import the entire CVS repository. So far the process has taken about a week on the (not very impressive) hardware I have available. I've actually been working on this as a side project for about a month and I have tried several different import methods, including a previous attempt at using cvsps-import. My last try was unsuccessful, but I think I have worked out the problems. That's encouraging, because cvsps-import is incremental and would allow people to try bzr in the same way that they can try the unofficial git repository. I played around for some time with a repository that was *nearly* complete and it weighed in at around 450 M (with all branches). My original plan was to pipe up on the lists *after* I had something that I knew worked, but I'm pretty close, and I thought I might save someone the trouble of duplicating my efforts. Jason Earl
