FYI, there's a tech-repository%netbsd.org@localhost mailing list about moving 
to 
other version control systems (list archives at 
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-repository/tindex.html). There 
doesn't seem to be much recent discussion though… however, apparently 
the CVS repo has been converted to both Git and Fossil.
