- Discourage cvs-import if this is not the initial import into empty directories?

FESCo IIRC (there was no public summary of the meeting afaik) agreed on the FUDCon 2007 meeting to discourage the use of cvs-import and thus remove the section that describes its use from the wiki (e.g. http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/UsingCvsFaq ). The discussion further settled on "it would be nice if someone improves the cvs-import script to force users to look at a diff before the import. But if nobody works on this lets ignore the problem for a little bit longer, as we probably get a new VCS in less then one year anyway -- when doing that switch make sure users get a diff presented".

Is that roughly correct? If yes: is there anything else that needs to be discussed?

Or did I miss anything?
