I want to add a relative svn external in the new format introduced in 
svn 1.5, which permits relative paths. This is a great improvement for 
maintenance because it removes host names and makes internal externals 
(I am turning into Rumsfeld) robust against branching.

This *will* cause those using an old (pre 1.5) svn client to be forced 
to upgrade. In another project, these externals did cause minor user 
confusion.

So, please vote (or just tell me if it is allowed):

svn externals in svn 1.5 format in the GeoTools repo? Yes or no?
