Look at this part of the book:

   http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.1/ch05s04.html#svn-ch-5-sect-6.1

"There are benefits to using a single repository for multiple
projects, most obviously the lack of duplicated maintenance. A single
repository means that there is one set of hook scripts, one thing to
routinely backup, one thing to dump and load if Subversion releases an
incompatible new version, and so on. Also, you can move data between
projects easily, and without losing any historical versioning
information.
The downside of using a single repository is that different projects
may have different commit mailing lists or different authentication
and authorization requirements."
