Sorry, it seems I wasn't clear enough.
I don't think about how to name directories and files in the SVN repo
itself. Sure we can stick with the schema like it is done in other
projects. It's more a general thing how to present trunk and branches to
the outside.
E.g., when we release bits we have to make clear into which direction
they point. It's a difference if we use a name like "branch 3.4.x" or
tell the people it's "OOO 3.4.0" or maybe "AOOO 3.4.0".
So, I don't think that a trailing 0 is not ? when it is the 3.4.0
release. And the OOO is still necessary to show it's from our project.
Of course it could be "AOOO" or whatever we will agree to.
How to name the release files is another thing. There should be a clear
structure to keep it simple and straight for scripts. But this is a
topic for later.
I hope it's more clear now. ;-)

What about this naming schema for master and feature branches? *)
In the past we had the following:
DEV300 = master/trunk/head
This will never lead to a release
We're using Subversion, and nearly every svn repository across the
planet names this "trunk". Unless there is a specific reason to vary
from that, I don't see why we'd want to name the directory "DEV300".
OOO340 = branch
Branched from a specific DEV300 milestone to stablize the code when coming
closer to a specific release (here: OOo 3.4)
Branches can be named whatever we'd like. My own preference would be
to call this: /branches/3.4.x
The "OOO" is awfully redundant, and the last digit ("0") doesn't make
sense since we would be releasing patches from the branch such as
3.4.1. The "3.4.x" naming is used by many products, and it has worked
out very well.
