If thos 31 are OK with that then it's easy, we can do a BK to CVS exporter
and the BK people are happy and the CVS people are happy.

Before you reject that you might go look at the amount of information
being captured in the CVS tree for the kernel.  There are 12,911 commits
in the CVS tree.  That's because BK captures far more fine grained info
than CVS does and we transfer that info to CVS.

No it isn't.  It's a problem if we choose to enforce it.  Your employer 
uses BK and there are plenty of people at Red Hat who work on CVS and
we haven't said a word.
