Here is the minimal list of files and directories, including their
subdirectories in the case of directories, from under
cvs.mozilla.org's mozilla top-level directory, that I propose we
migrate into the Mozilla 2 initial repository:

aclocal.m4
allmakefiles.sh

See http://wiki.mozilla.org/Mozilla2 for more. The initial repository
will be a Mercurial one, but don't panic. We need to get to work on
Mozilla 2 concurrently with 1.9, and we can't wait for the perfect
repository solution to emerge. We'll start with hg, and reconsider bzr
if it speeds up enough. See preed's blog for why we can't use git or
other contenders and wannabes.
Also do not panic about the above list leaving out mail, mailnews,
composer, calendar, camino, etc. Mozilla 2 needs focus and the
repository can grow. Or, with better VCSes such as hg, we can have
several repositories. With better embedding APIs we won't want to
tightly couple source of a given XUL app to source of a given Gecko
back end file. But we will want to keep Firefox and XULRunner building
at all times. So the above list does include those two.
Comments welcome, but we are likely to create this soon. Useful
comments would be "don't forget xyzzy or you can't build foopy", not
"why aren't you importing electricalfire" or the like.
Thanks to Benjamin for help getting this list right (jst and pav too).
