I don't have a strong preference one way or the other, but it would be
good to understand what the desired new order of things is. Another
change that I stumbled across is root.dir vs argo.root.dir. I think
root.dir is new and I'm not sure whether it's supposed to replace
argo.root.dir or point to someplace different.
One remaining bit of non-parallelism that has caused some grief is the
tools directory. It has a different on-disk name in the single
checkout tree ('tools') as compared to the Eclipse tree
('argo-core-tools'). For the purposes of the CI server, what I ended
up doing is making multiple individual SVN registrations for each of
the projects and then doing the same for the tools directory, but
renaming the local directory to match the Eclipse structure. This was
kind of a pain though and more work than we can expect the users to
deal with, so we either need to come up with a script that checks
everything out in our desired configuration, or get the build to work
with this remaining difference (or move the tools directory).

p.s. The CI server seems to be unreachable right now, but I'm not
some place where I can get to the firewall/machine to figure out
what's going on. It should be back up in a few hours at the most.
