Hi there.
I was thinking about using "cvssync" in a project of mine that
involves many CVS users (moreover most of them are non-programmers and
I convinced them to use CVS only thanks to TortoiseCVS ^_^) but I
would like to use monotone nonetheless if at all possible, in order to
at least track my own changes "the way they are meant to" (e.g. I'm
about to move some files and directories around).

I read some bit here and there on this ML about using cvssync.
I also read that at one moment it was on the verge of being included
in the trunk.

What's the current status?
Is out there any "documentation" how to use it?
If it is still an "experimental branch" and I compile it on the
machine that will "bridge" between CVS and MTN, all other hosts can
use a plain vanilla monotone?

On the wiki I found only this:
http://venge.net/monotone/wiki/CvsSyncHints

I will for sure use it on a "ad hoc" monotone database, so even if it
breaks up in very strange ways there should be no problem (unless the
brakage is pushed on CVS! but after all I also know how to manually
edit RCS files, so that's no big issue as well), but those questions
would help me consider if giving it a shot may be a good idea or not =)
