This is what Roller does and I also had suggested to James. However, I think that there's a need for both. If it's something that's in early stages, maybe a full branch works best because you need a *whole* copy of the tree to make modifications in other parts of the tree, ie. some refactoring/redesign. Else, it might very well be in trunk/sandbox so others can follow it more easily. For example, validator, rdf serializer, etc can be in trunk/sandbox for everyone to play with if desired. I'd also rather not have personal sandboxes, but instead feature-specific branches, that way many can work there. Personal sandboxes makes the project feel less community-driven. -Elias
