I can't think of any way it isn't, really. The people maintaining our  
archives are the ones who will have to face a few issues, the time  
taken for migration, checking effects and probably adapting their  
custom scripts more than anything else.

For us, this page:

http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Subversion

mentioned in the wiki article about Gnome's move to Subversion, is  
brief, to the point and very helpful. It even contains a specific  
cross-reference between CVS and Subversion.
