There being no objections, and given the large maintenance benefits, I have converted all internal svn:externals to the svn >=1.5 relative format on 2.0.x and trunk. This means that an svn client of version 1.5 or later, or compatible, is required to checkout GeoServer.
This change was applied in r13650 on 2.0.x and r13651 on trunk. There is still one absolute external: app-schema test-data from GeoTools. I should document the need to update this for every branch/tag, although in practice updating on branches is most important, as the tag is typically close to head of branch when we build it. Because it is an extension, you should make the maintainer fix it. :-P Kind regards, Ben.
