If you aren't going to use the CVS repository, in other words if you
are changing your VC tool and from now on you'll be referencing just
the new HG repository, then yes, you can safely remove them.

I usually have a private "migration" space, from where I "clone" (in
hg terminology) a new fresh and clean hg-only repository that's open
to the outside. Now and then I rerun tailor (fetching newer patches
from upstream) and push them on the public repo.

Anyway, from tailor's POV, the only important file is "tailor.state":
it needs this file to be able to "keep-going" in the migration. When
it does not find one, tailor assume this is a new bootstrap, and
restart from scratch.

hth,
ciao, lele.
