There is one reason why I'm currently considering to forbid the use of
cvs-import for already imported packages: Most people won't run a diff
against the old package/the old spec this way before committing (or does
the script force a diff before committing? I never used it for anything
else than importing).

I run a "cvs diff -u" every time before I commit something and now and
then (every fifth package round about) I find debug leftovers or small
errors this way *before* committing them. Maybe I'm just to stupid and
other people never make such errors -- but I suspect they do.
