hello i had the same problem, what i do now is to version the
framework too (in a separate repository) and checkout a working copy
of it inside a folder of the working copy of the current project, tsvn
has the hability to know when a working copy is nested inside another
and doesn't try to include it in the parent working copy. this opens a
new problem, if you change the framework, commit and then update the
working copy of another project you may be breaking that project's
integration with the framework, but that's more a problem of designing
your framework in a backwards compatibility way
