Personally, I just want to switch to using eggs rather than  
externals. :)

That'll teach me to reply to email before coffee.  Philipp  
explained the

observed behavior.


And another argument for usning tags instead of 'branch +  
revision' for
externals:  if SVN doesn't remember that the external should be  
frozen

to the revision it was checked out with, then SVN is broken here.

/me *still* wants a 'svn ln' command which creates a read-only tag
from the combination of branch and revision, but the SVN team is
uninterested in supporting release managers' use cases, it seems.


I want that too! Actually, I would be happy with being able to give
revision numbers human-readable aliases. Then an external could  
still be

something like:

  testing -r zope.testing-0.2 svn://svn.zope.org/../zope/testing

zope.testing-0.2 would be an alias for, say, 49234. Of course, this  
also

requires that svn was not broken with externals like it is now.

Good point. I think we can start with our external dependencies
(docutils, twisted) as they don't require any developer story from us.
