Another place to put SVN dump files is on an [email protected] where 
others can reach it.  This is apparently one way to deliver to Apache 
Infrastructure when the time comes. (Did you do that with the OpenOffice.org 
Head, Rob?)

Because of potentially separate projects having separate releases, it might be 
useful to consider,

/odf/simple/trunk/...
/odf/toolkit/trunk/...
/odf/subproject3/trunk/...

and the peers of each trunk are releases or, if you prefer the /tag and /branch 
structures that hold such things.  (I favor releases being siblings of trunk, 
but that's not typical.)

My criterion is that /trunk/ and its peers are where the license and notice 
files show up applicable to the particular releasable, 
configurable/buildable/deployable component.

Something I've been experimenting with that might be useful to you.

Great!

I can help review this if you upload the dumpfile.

1) svnadmin dump file:///local-repo > dumpfile

2) gzip or zip the dumpfile

3) Upload someplace, maybe to ODF Toolkit Union website

4) I can then download and load the dumpfile into a local respository.

Today we have a separate Hg repository per project, right?  Or is it
possible to clone the entire project, via
https://hg.odftoolkit.org/hg/ ?

In the end we want to end up with a single SVN repository at Apache.

What will be easier to accomplish this:

1) Combine everything into a single Hg project and then convert to SVN?

or

2) Convert separate Hg projects to SVN and then merge them together in SVN?

Which makes it easier to preserve history?


In SVN our root will be:

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/odf/


So we'll want a directory structure for the trunk that looks like:

/odf/trunk/component1
/odf/trunk/component2
/odf/trunk/component3, etc.
