the problem in our case is that projects most likely will be created in
trunk only since developers will add these on a day-by-day basis. i dont
want hassle them to also create a project in the tags directory. i just
wish they could do:
$ svn copy URL/whatever/trunkURL URL/whatever/morewhatever2/tagURL
and not think about it anymore. it is so easy to do elsewhere ;)
hmm, i'll post another related question in a second to see if it's
possible at all ...

you are right. that won't fit [perfectly] in our case for various
reasons though.
thanks anyway
