I think that we have to do the transition ASAP, but still leave some 
time if anybody has objections. I propose to do the transition in the 
second half of the next week:
1) disable cvs commits: 2006-04-18
2) make transition to svn: 2006-04-18
3) enable svn: whatever it takes to do the transition. My estimate is 
~2dys: 2006-04-20
4) update nightly builds to use svn instead cvs: Borut
4) commit VPATH ;-): Bernhard
5) redesign nightly builds with VPATH

I can do the transition.

Agree. I already created an empty SDCC 2.6.0 Release page.
