Converting ClearCase to CVS

[Mark]

We are going to be converting our ClearCase managed projects over to CVS. The
following is what I am thinking about doing. Please let me know your thoughts.
We want to end up working on the HEAD after the conversion. (cvs 1.11.1p1)

- selected source baselines (labels) in clearcase to preserve/port in/to CVS
- foreach baseline label do
     - set a new clearcase view to the baseline label
       ## import handles the 'adds' correctly, right?
     - cvs import to branch 1.1.3 using the label for <release tag>
     - create a cvs workarea against that release tag
     - update that cvs workarea to latest on branch 1.1.3
     - cvs remove files listed in the update, since import doesn't handle file
removals
- after all baselines have been added, create new workarea off HEAD
- cvs up -j<last label>
- cvs commit
- we are ready to continue with our work, using CVS

Thanks

Mark
