There's a couple of other issues there:
- mod_dav_svn is going to log a revision for every file, rather than each 
deployment, which might be suboptimal
- I'm not sure it will be able to detect which files have changed and which 
haven't - so you might end up uploading more than desired. This would apply to 
any generic DAV server, since we're going to be comparing content, not 
timestamps.

Your general plan, whether it ends up as part of site-deploy, wagon, or a 
standalone plugin, sounds reasonable. I'm not sure you can rely on svn 1.7 - 
there's still problems with IDE integration that means some folks won't want to 
upgrade or fiddle with parallel installs. However, I'm pretty sure the 
maven-scm libraries can help you do what you want with small enhancements.

Cheers,
Brett
