May I suggest;

1. check out the old avalon-site.
1.a cd into appropriate directory :D

2. for FILE in `find . -type f | grep -v CVS` ; do rm $FILE ; done
3. copy the new docs into the old structure.
4. cvs -q remove  , to take away old docs no longer needed.
5. cvs -q update -dP , to get a list of new files.
6. cvs -q add <each such file>
7. cvs -q commit -m "whatever"
Umm, am I sufficiently brave ... ?
you want to learn this sooner or later :P

What about just nuking the contents of avalon-site/site/framework and 
doing a clean import?
that would work too.

My experience in the past is that I can (without problem) import over 
prior imports, but I cannot import over commits.
that might be true. cvs commit can do merges, import cannot.

Get yourself cygwin (www.cygwin.com), learn a teenie weenie little bit 
of bash (the default linux shell, also in cygwin, available on the asf 
machines), spend an hour or two reading the cvsbook (at redbean.com 
somewhere I think), create a foney repository and try stuff out. It is 
not actually hard at all.

cheers!
