Well, some people have been waiting for months, so perhaps they don't 
think it's fast :-)

I'm not sure how to manage a transition period. Who is going to 
synchronize the two repositories? I certainly don't want to do this. 
And I picked SVN precisely because it was so similar to CVS. The only 
time that 'official' matters anyway, is when I make a release.
