Eddie,
You have the power!  I just created a development sandbox and placed in the
newly created directory.  Worked like a charm.

Maybe I'm just not doing it right.  How did you create the directory?  I was
trying to "create it" when I was creating the branch via svn.  I got an
error back that said I didn't have permissions.  And, then I tried creating
an empty folder via the svn perspective in Eclipse and I got the same
permission error.  Did you ssh to the svn repository and create the folder
that way?  Just curious.

Thanks again!
Kevin

Kevin--

  Not sure what's up with your permissions (if it even is that...),
but I just created a sandboxes/ line here:

   http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/openjpa/sandboxes/

See if you're able to commit a file there and then try copying the trunk/
line.

Eddie
