Who uses Windows? ;-)
Well... not me but... :)
Yes, this could become an issue, we will have to keep an eye on it...
Windows does have issues with long paths and checking out into one's
home directory (under XP for example) does not help since just the home
directory is already quite a long path. So one could always check out
into some drive root (or short path) or simply check out one single
sub-project at at time (assuming the build system(s) we choose can
handle building only a single subproject).
