Include original project history in Git repo?

It might be nice for historical reference to include the commit history of the original project from the old SourceForge CVS repo, from before the community handoff and development started on Git. Would you be interested in pulling that into the GitHub repo?

Here's an example of what it could look like: https://github.com/apjanke/prefuse-history. This repo was created by using cvs2svn to export the old project's CVS history, and then prepending that to the history of the current https://github.com/prefuse/Prefuse repo.
