Just this morning I changed the direction a bit ... Most of the conversion will 
be
avoided and some things done in FSVS itself, as the next version will _only_ be 
a
1.1.18.

There's only a small bit left to be done in a script - rewriting the ignore 
lists
(changing the text format), and calling things like "fsvs urls dump | fsvs urls 
load" to
re-write the lists.
Should be a few lines of perl or python.

Any volunteers for that?


1.2.0 will (AFAIK ATM ;-) have full mixed-working-copy abilities, so that using 
multiple
URLs from multiple working copies (especially committing!) should *really* 
work; and,
for compatibilities' sake (with subversion), it will (need to) use a SQLite 
database.

I'm already half-way there, so the release should happen in this decade.

(Sorry if SQLite gives someone extra troubles; but I need to fetch all entries 
from a
given URL, and all URLs from a given entry, and doing that with two 
synchronized on-disk
hashes is much more work than simply using an SQL engine.
There are some other things that'll be put there sooner or later - eg. the 
properties,
to reduce the number of on-disk files that FSVS uses.)


Regards,

Phil
