There is a converter that takes a CVS archive in and produces a
subversion repository out, including full history, tags, and branches. 
We actually tested it some weeks ago using the resiprocate CVS archive
as input, and it seems to have worked well (we'll throw that one away
and do the conversion over again for the real thing).

It will, as Alan said, _NOT_ do anything about changes you have in
working copies - if what you have is not checked in somewhere, you will
have to check out a subversion working copy and merge in the changes by
hand.

One slight change to the above - the creation of SIPfoundry accounts is
in no way dependent on any of the rest of the above; you can and should
create your accounts now.  See 

  http://www.sipfoundry.org/tools/account.html

Once you create the issue tracker account, Alan can create the
corresponding subversion account for you.

I'd also suggest looking at the (new) Subversion Tips page:
