SVN:externals is FREAKING AWESOME.  Just what the doctor ordered
for those trickier situations...  check it out...

As for repositories for each project, the only thing to keep in mind is that
the JavaHL interface cannot commit across repositories.  The SVNkit
interface doesn't have that limitation.  Not much of a limitation, boils
down to committing changes for each project, vs. all projects at once.

As always, the PITA of linking or sharing components is that you gotta
really test everything that uses that component whenever you make a
change to it.  It's harder to stage roll-outs when code is shared, and
mapped, etc.

It's a good recurring thread, that one about "do all projects move along as
you do, just the ones you're currently working on"... pluses and minuses
either way...  but a HUGE incentive for unit testing, etc., if you DO go the
route of "we're all going!" or "if I'm going, I'm taking you all with me" type
deals...
