1. As long as we'll have to run a script anyway, a script which generates
   the CVS directories on the fly would probably be about as easy as one to
   convert the current ones, and could also be useful for those who still
   have earlier source trees lying around.
   
this is false.

the script to change things will probablyu just add something like
"anoncvs.netbsd.org:" to the start of the CVS/Root files.  nothing
else will need to change.  to *generate* the CVS dirs, you need to
know lots of things, including the RCS version of *every* file in
the source tree.  the scales of these two projects are massively
different.

   2. If we're now including the CVS directories in the source tars, then
   the 'tracking current with cvs' directions at
   http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/current/index.html (which are also
   useful for importing a release into cvs for adding local modifications)
   should be changed from '-I !' to '-I ! -I CVS' to prevent CVS directory
   clashes.


good idea.
