Hey Martin,
That's a neat idea, and a great way to get projects to move from CVS to GIT.
I'd recommend that you avoid providing commit access to a GIT repository
via CVS for starters. Many projects (eg. Wine) would benefit greatly
from just having a way for people to get the source via CVS without
having to write scripts to maintain a CVS tree in parallel. Serious
developers will use GIT if the master repository is GIT anyway.
Mike
