Updating the documentation have to be done so they will only have to
copy-paste the new commands.
Today, CSV is a problem to get some contributors because they don't
prefer to use modern versionning system. (At least, it's the case for
one DD I met in the last DebConf.)
Of course, it's a different background from translator, so the opinion
about the migration will be different.

I'm interested to migrate from CVS to whatever DVCS. Git is the most
used today so it's probably the best choice:
- more help for beginner
- advanced user has used/uses/will use Git at some point
However, I currently try to improve the rendering of the documentation
and I don't think I can do both at the same time.
