Last year we moved many apps from VSS to CVS.  We also had another set of 
apps that were in RCS and we moved all of them to CVS.  It is quite easy:

1.  Check in all code to VSS.
2.  Check out all code from VSS (i.e., get a local copy of the sandbox)
3.  Set up CVS repository (see manual - it's basically one command).
	$ cvs init ... (cannot remember the details).

4.  Issue a cvs import command against your VSS sandbox.
5.  Go home a happy and content man.

Not sure about preserving VSS history.  Check the CVS manual and 
contributions.  Probably someone has solved this problem already.
