Don't think that. Some people used to CVS still say "it does the job, and I know the tool", and look suspciously on those youngsters trying push anything they did not even heard of (I'd push for git today, but 18 months ago all I had to push for was svn). And only after months of "here svn/git would have done better", and regularly showing off gitk (git-cvsimport is not a panacea, but it helps), can they be ready to hear. But by then more people have been made to meet CVS because of a new project using it, and it will take more time that we would like to see it retire from the scene...
