To start with, someone who’s familiar with that branch (I’m assuming Peter) will need to move the existing trunk to a branch and then copy over qa_refactor to the trunk. Then I think we need to discuss what to do with the deep-libs folder. The build, test, and possibly runtime depends on jars that are in deps-lib. From what I gather, it’s unacceptable to put jar files into a source distribution, and somewhat discouraged to put them into svn, so we should figure out whether we could use Ivy to get the dependencies at runtime, or setup and document a separate download process for them.
