This is great, thanks for making this happen.

I have a nit-picky question -- are we sure that RC_1_34_0
in CVS and SVN is identical? Same question about CVS HEAD
and SVN trunk? The answer "no" is fine -- I guess I can run
diff myself.

So, what are development procedures? In particular:

1. Am I free to commit to trunk as I would commit to CVS HEAD?
2. Am I free to create any work branches under /svn/boost/branches
(surely, using names that clearly indicate what the branch is)
