All of this should be possible using hook scripts.

My conversion project at http://vss2svn.tigris.org/ is still considered
alpha quality but it can migrate the entire change history of your VSS
repository over to Subversion. It will also create atomic commits wherever
possible even though VSS doesn't support this feature, to more easily
discern changesets than VSS allows.

What it currently cannot do is convert labels, branches, or shared
files/projects. I hope to support some or all of these to some degree by
the end of the year.
