Can you explain how that would work. Given a single organisation, and 
our
current layout of:

* apertium
** languages
*** apertium-cat
*** apertium-eus
** nursery
*** apertium-tat-rus

etc.

How would people check out:

languages/apertium-nno
languages/apertium-nob
trunk/apertium-nno-nob
trunk/apertium
trunk/lttoolbox

without having to check out the whole of any submodule ? Also, would it 
be as simple
as in SVN (e.g. 5 commands). Perhaps it would be good for someone on 
github to try it
out (not using the apertium name), and demonstrate to us.
