Hello,

A couple of fixes are now available in crew and crew-stable (ending at 
http://hg.intevation.org/mercurial/crew/rev/5b0b0834419c). They require 
cygwin cvsps (AFAIK there is no Windows port) and either cygwin cvs 
client or cvsnt (I did not test pserver connections with the last one 
but there is no reason to fail).

Usage sample (from Windows prompt, no need for cygwin besides having 
cvsps and possibly cvs in PATH):

$ cvs -d:pserver:anonymous at gwt.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gwt login
$ cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous at gwt.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gwt co 
-P GMaps2

[... local copy extration here ...]

$ hg convert GMaps2

assuming destination GMaps2-hg
initializing destination GMaps2-hg repository
connecting to :pserver:anonymous at gwt.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/gwt
scanning source...
sorting...
converting...
186 First pass - alpha code
185 Added additional control methods
184 Added the base overlay class
183 Implemented GIcon

[... a couple of minutes later, SF slowness ...]

1 Updated ElementBridge to support GGeocoderResult (so we could grab the 
placemark arrays)
0 Current code
