If people are looking to improve Gentoo's tools it would be far more
productive for them to help out with the git migration. Can I stop
somebody from making gerrit-for-cvs? No. I won't even try - Gentoo
is about choice. However, the fact is that git is the future, and
we're probably one of the only serious FOSS projects around still
using cvs (largely because it doesn't hamper us as much as it hampers
everybody else).
We're really not that far from having a working git implementation.
