Fine with me.  :)

For a single person doing the commits, CVS (or any CMS) isn't really needed
(though I use it, mostly for practice, on my own projects), but if we're going
to have multiple commiters (only a few, at least at first, I think), then it's
an almost necessity. Since SourceForge already has it up, we'd probably just
start using that for development, but still post the tarballs to open-it (if
allowed) as well as SF (they have lots of mirrors ;)).

I have a SF account (id: sandalle) if needed, with CVS already setup.

You mean CMS as in typesetting type stuff, or CMS as in CVS?  (Too many acronyms
with different meanings ;)).  Keeping the webpage in CVS would be good if it
was somehow messed up and/or lost, whereas the dynamic CMS programs make it
more complicated (as the freeglut project found out a few weeks ago), but
prettier and less maintainence once it's up, but dynamic webpages are not my
forte.  ;)
