The revision numbers have no real significance. So the fact that several
projects all share the same repository/revnum is not that big of a deal.

Having separate repositories is mostly based on security regimes, rather
than anything else. I've got Subversion running on webdav.org, and I plan to
put a number of unrelated projects into the same repos. They're all open
source, so no big deal. For now, the committers can commit anywhere (I trust
people to be adults), but I can always install a hook script to enforce some
ACLs (in fact, we distribute one in /trunk/tools/hook-scripts/).
