Hmmm... I can do it pretty easily with the VSS plugin for Eclipse.
The big problem is the attempt to delete the current project space
before doing the checkout -- that doesn't seem really necessary.
Private spaces for each developer don't work since there are way too
many dependencies on the server config which can't be duplicated on each
developer's workstation.
