[KLUG Members] switching to subversion from CVS, quick ?'s

I have started to use subversion for several web projects I started up. 
I like it and want to move some older projects I have in CVS. I am not 
worried about the history as I am currently at a nice stable release for 
the pair I want to do this with. I want to make sure everything is good 
though.

I figured the easiest way to make the change is to remove the CVS 
directories form the project on the web server. Then add it to a new 
subversion project and finally uninstall CVS from the server.

Has anyone tried this? I am not a CVS expert and really don't use it a 
whole lot. I mainly use it as a method to sync my development laptop and 
the production web server. I just wanted to know if there is anything 
hidden I am missing that might foul up my work here.

Thanks for any tips/advice.

Rick
