Good that we don't just have remote access on exit1.org ;) I could setup an hg on exit1.org and convert the cvs to it. At first I would try a direct convert (since I had no bad experience with that till now at our company, although I must admit I just did this with a few repositories yet). If I encounter any problems with that, I could do the intermediate step with svn as well. Once the hg on exit1.org is set up you can decide how to use it: as a primary or secondary repository pushing branches between exit1.org and berlios as you like. If that's Ok with you I probably can start tomorrow with that, at the latest next weekend. Regards, Jörn -- .''`.
