Well, somebody should write something better then. :-)

I've been bitten by the wonderful easy to remember semantics of cvs
import about three times in a row, that's been my motivation for
writing easy-import.  By that time, there was no ports collection and
no cvspolic^H^H^H^H^Hmeisters...  If it's no longer useful for FreeBSD
work, it needs to be replaced (IMHO).  If someone is motivated enough,
don't worry throwing the existing script completely overboard and
rewrite it from scratch if you feel like that.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
