Sure! Checkout my branch net.venge.monotone.cvsimport-branch-reconstruction

I've documented what I did on the wiki:
www.venge.net/monotone/wiki/CvsImport

You may also want to join the monotone mailing list (CCed), or hang out 
in the IRC channel #monotone (on OFTC: irc://irc.oftc.net/#monotone).

A very friendly and helpful guy, called Thomas Moschny, has already 
started TracMonotone, maybe help him? See:

For good reasons, that's probably not wanted. Please read the monotone 
FAQ: http://venge.net/mtn-wiki/FAQ
(OTOH, I'm also still somewhat biased towards PostgreSQL. I have to 
admit, though, that SQLite has never disappointed me so far.)

What could really, is optimize the database usage concerning locking, see:
http://venge.net/mtn-wiki/DatabaseLocking

I hope to have given some good starting points.
