hg convert - partial conversions?

I have a CVSNT repository that I am trying to convert to mercurial. I  
have pretty much settled on using the ConvertExtension as it seems to  
work best in our case and with it I can create a forest of hg  
repositories for parts of our project (we are also splitting a single  
1.7G repository into a bunch of smaller ones)

The branches and tags come across as well but it is not perfect as  
cvsps doesn't quite get it right on our repository but that is not a  
major problem for us as the CVS repository will not be going away.

The one thing I cannot seem to do is just bring across the last 12  
months of changes. The repository dates back 6 years but I really  
don't need the whole history in the new repository.

Is there a way to get the ConvertExtension to only bring across the  
history from date X?

thanks,
