On this note, it's worth considering how we'll structure the project to
accommodate different languages. Especially with the Java port, I don't think
a directory within sandbox does it justice anymore. How about a structure like
this:
libcloud
/trunk/ <-- core python trunk
/java/ <-- java trunk
/perl/ <-- perl trunk
/.../ <-- etc, etc
