 IMHO the domain part of the svn:externals is incorrect (.com rather than
 .org).
 
 IMHO you don't need the IMHO, the svn externals reference is in
 correct now, it wasn't originally because 2.0 went out when we still
 had to use the .com domain.
 
 I don't know svn well enough to know how to efficient fix this in

As far as I know, properties are versioned. I would suggest propedit
(or simply propdel/propset). unfortunatly propedit only works with local
copies.

Use svn propedit svn:externals . on a local copy of the 2.0 branch,
and commit.


 IMHO the external reference in a fixed version-branch should not point
 to a moving target trunk.
 
 Well a branch should map to branch, I don't personally know how to set
 this. Alas I'm not expert in everything having to spread myself too
 thinly.
 
 Do you know how to set this?

If you are doing propedit, change the URL from trunk to the right
branch in OpenThreads. Unfortunatly I do not know which branch of OT was
current when OSG made 2.0.


Cheers

At a higher level I'd have to say that svn::externals are very cool,
but do have downsides such as illustrate here - they do require extra
maintaince.  https access is also difficult when using externals.

One possible solution is to swap OpenThreasds/OSG across so that
OpenThreads using the OSG as it external, and the OSG keeps the
definitive version of the source.  Outside of the OSG OpenThreads
really isn't an active project, neither in community or project
leadership, so flipping things is likely to help far more people than
it inconviniences.

Again I'm not svn expert.  So suggestions on how to swap over the svn
externals between OSG and OpenThreads would be very useful.

Robert.
