There is a standard Drupal (and maybe everywhere) methodology for managing a project in CVS, but not all of us know about it.

Always do new development on HEAD.
When the time comes to leave a branch behind (as when beginning Drupal 7 development) branch off the old (like D6) stuff. Continue working on HEAD.
You can apply patches from HEAD onto other branches, if you have other branches going.

This is the approach described in the fine Pro Drupal Development.

Please add to this.
