+++Switching to Mercurial
First, the caveats:
* CVS is still needed to manage the project website and downloads
* the source code will not be removed from your current VCS
Steps for switching:
* [https://www.mozdev.org/bugs/enter_bug.cgi?product=mozdev&format=mozdev&component=cvs&short_desc=Setup%20Mercurial%20repository%20for%20PROJECT&comment=Should%20Mozdev%20covert%20old%20repository%3F%20Yes%2FNo request a new Mercurial repository] (be sure to include whether Mozdev should convert the old repository and if you want any changes in structure)
* Update your projects **source.html** page with new information on how to checkout your code; you can use our [http://www.mozdev.org/source/browse/templates/www/source.html template] as a guide
* Mozdev staff will comment on your bug when the repository is setup. Links on Mozdev's site (such as the project overview page) will be updated automatically. It is your responsiblility to update your project web pages.
