OK, this was the part I didn't understand; I thought elvis CVS only held
translation files.

Our plan was to start by moving over documentation PO files to go with
the source in cvs.fedoraproject.org.  Then follow that with whatever

What is the plan with moving these projects SCM to fedoraproject.org?
Not going to happen until after F7?
