There is a CVS migration script that comes with subversion.

There is good support on Windows. There is a normal client and one that plugs 
into MSVC, I believe. On Linux, Cervisia can support it (though the Debian 
one is compiled without support for it). I am sure there are other clients. 
If you set it up with Webdav and Apache2, anything that can access a website 
can access the repo.
