No I'm not. I'm making the assumption that we can set policy on
how to do this :-).

It's not clear to me that CVS will help us with the Athena source
tree problem. There are multiple Athena source trees, and it's not
clear we want to keep track of development in all of them.
It's also not clear to me that we have the disk space to deal with
CVS in a convenient fashion (I've said this before. I'd be happy
to be wrong).
I'd like to here some more commentary (particularly from Sal)
before I go and write up some scripts to do what I think is
appropriate.
