Christophe, this is not aimed at you. I'm just using your mail as a
springboard.

I have two strong opinions regarding cvs2svn.pl:

   1. It is carelessly named, as it will inevitably be confused with
       cvs2svn.py. My recommendation is that the author be a little
       more creative, and a lot more sensitive to the fact that
       scripts are often referred to without their
       interpreter-indicating filename extensions. In my mind,
       "cvs2svn" *means* cvs2svn.py -- don't mess with my head.

   2. It is not part of Subversion itself, does not live in
       Subversion's tree, and is not distributed with Subversion. So
       please, while it's fine to announce new releases here, kindly
       take further discussion to a list dedicated to this entirely
       different product.
