---------------------------------------- It looks bad to have trunks everywhere, but if the DAO and Mapper libraries are going to be distinct distributions with their own releases, then I think it'll be easier to work with releases (and their matching tags) that way... If the .NET code had a release and the SVN structure was like: /trunk /cs /java /site /tags /mapper_1_5_0 (something like this) /java_2_1_0 Then a tag like mapper_1_5_0 would be created from /trunk/cs/mapper in this case instead of basically from /trunk since the .NET release wouldn't need the Java code. Or the tag would still be from the /trunk but not include the /trunk/java dirs, just /trunk/cs/mapper. I think I prefer tag contents originating from the trunk, so I like Ted's suggestion for the trunk locations. This way, I can go into /cs/mapper, find the /tags dir and grab whatever tag I needed (for a specific release let's say) instead of theoretically looking through a list of combined Java and .NET tags. I guess one way to figure this out is to see: + How would you like to have your tags created/named/organized in the tags folder? + What should each tag contain (in terms of files)? + From what top-level folder should the files for the tag come from or be copied from? That should probably determine where the trunk(s) need to be located and the process for creating tags (releases) and their contents after the move.
