It's just a very confusing email, that's all. Not exactly sure what
you're asking, but it's not stopping me...

What are the suggestions?
The resolution of conflicts after a update is inherited from subversion
and is nothing TSVN can do
anything about. What exactly is the problem? You should use resolve
conflict independant of the
file typ (binary or text) or you will loose the changes done in
previously committed revisions.

If update deletes files then it's already to late to do anything. The
change has already been permanented
in the repo (and possibly everyone elses WC). Use your diff/merge tools
to move over your changes.
Team communications is also a good thing here. Maybe you shouldn't have
ppl coding in places where
a reorg is pending.

What is a open containing workspace? It sounds to me you are refering to
windows explorer (which
already exists).
