My web service, written in GWT (with GXT) needs an XML configuration
file. At the moment, the file is in my resources area. Therefore, by
calling a service on my server, it will grab the file, unmarshall it
with JAXB etc, etc, etc.
However, at some point, I will need to access subversion. This
you can also store the XML file in the datastore, why do you want to
use versioning control? or do u also want to support diffs? by
sandbox is meant that GAE does not provide more than a servlet
container, even less, as there are some restrictions like JNDI or
FileIO is not permitted.

This application is going to be used at multiple locations by multiple
users. Therefore, allowing users to create their own configs, or
choosing a default or another user's config. This requirement means
there has to be a 'central location' for all configs... subversion is
the best idea I thought?
