I used it to port our company's VSS repository to CVS and then ported
the CVS repository off to SVN. The only problem that I ran into is that
CVS doesn't seem to keep the EOL characters intact but instead converts
them to the platform's EOL, which between Linux and Windows is
different. This of course would corrupt the Visual Basic source. So I
opted to forgo the history on our VSS archive since no one really used
it.
