The way I handle this is to deploy Mercurial with Tailor.

Tailor imports CVS into Mercurial on a regular cron job. In turn, 
Mercurial's web interface provides an RSS feed. That feed contains links 
which let you view changesets as unified diffs. I continue to use 
Mercurial a lot for temporary branches.

The XORP development model is still such that we use CVS as "the 
authoritative repository" and there are still compelling reasons for 
this, a switch to Mercurial is very much dependent on required features 
e.g. obliterate being there.

Having said that, I strongly feel we should be moving with the times and 
I'd like to see the deployment of a public Mercurial repository for 
helping people outside the project to make and contribute changes.

cheers
