add + commit is safer than anything else. It can be rolled back very easily. 
Not sure what you mean by "nuking", but sounds a lot more "serious". If you 
mean remove stuff in CVS server directories, I would recommend against it 
since you loose all history.

Not sure what you mean.
The problem for "import" is that "merging" of changes happens on client, and 
not on the server (you notice this when you try to commit a file someone else 
have changed since you last updated it), and import is not constructed to 
handle "merges", so if the files are the same = no problem, but if they are 
different, it just says that there is "file in the way".


Or a another funny way of doing it is to create a branch on the existing site, 
then modify that to your liking and then merge the branch back to the head.
But that does not really add much value from a remove/add/commit manouver I 
told you about...

Maybe you just commit the stuff in where they are located now, and ask Leo 
Simons to do the transfer for you ;o)
