Thanx Chris,

I'm going to try this out tonight. I'm not sure I understand the
import/disconnect and connect thing, though. Do you checkout from Eclipse or
the Command line? If from Eclipse then I assume all of the folders come down
at once? Is this where you disconnect the children and check them out in a
different location? I've tried Subversive checking out only the parent w/o
recursing, then checked out one of the children and that seems to work. Are
there any potential pitfalls with this approach? I'd rather not refactor to
a flat structure because I've read about an open bug regarding the release
plugin with flat structures. Is that still an issue? Should we abandon the
plug in all together and just use the cmd line? Should we use Subclipse or
Subversive? All of these questions are nagging me. Thank you sooo much for
any/all help on the matter.
