I see the following problems:
1 NetBSD has cvs(1) in the base system, subversion is "only" a package;
  that increases the barrier for getting started
2 We need a replacement script that generates the commit mails (Is there one
  already? Does it have all the feature the currently used one has?)

What do others think about 1?
Is someone willing to provide a script for 2?

Other comments?
