Would anyone else agree that having the demos bundled with the 'trunk' is not a good idea?
The demos are not large -- about 1.3MB uncompressed. That's less than 5% of the size of the Zend Framework tree.
The documentation is a bigger piece of the tree, about 40% for the core docs, including the translations.
We do need to maintain consistency between the docs and the code to which the docs apply. Keeping the docs and code in the same svn repository satisfies that. Moving docs to wiki-only would break that. Moving docs to another repository would require us to link the docs and sources together with subversion externals, and this adds complexity to the administration and management. I'm mindful that our svn administrator for Framework is also one of our developers.
You know you can check out a subdirectory of the ZF tree, right? If all you need is the library directory, then just sync with the library directory. Or you can set up your own svn server and declare whatever set of subdirectories you want, treating them each as externals.
