I noticed you don't even remove write permission:
         # chmod -R a-w /cvs/xorg/$section/$module

Wouldn't it be best to do this for at least the length of the migration
so no one commits to CVS while you're in the middle of conversion?

Also, I see you have libs, app, proto & driver - are we going to leave
docs, fonts, data & util in CVS?   ( data/xkbdata should not be migrated since
we don't ever plan another release of it, but the bitmaps & cursors should
move eventually.  Working with xkb-config to migrate the xlibs/xkb-desc to
a non-dead SCM repository would be good but not part of this effort.)

My one timing concern is wondering if there will be admins around Friday
to do the final steps or if they'll all be at GUADEC still.   (Well, all
except ajax - if he's willing to help, then there's no problem.)
