Standard monotone's cvs_import works fine for simple cases. I didn't do
any work on the cvs_import branch and I don't think it's in a usable state.
You might want to check if cvs2svn can be of help. They have a nice git
export function and their CVS sanitizer code is field proven. I'm not
sure if you can get that into monotone, though.

There are all one-time conversion options, which need access to the RCS
files on the CVS server.
tailor may be an option, if you want a continuous mirror. It certainly
has a monotone plugin. I'm not sure what the status of cvs_sync is, but
it's intended to provide continuous synchronization as well.
