repository topography considerations

Hi,
We have several (> 10, < 100) projects in CVS we'd like to migrate from a
flat CVS structure to SVN
We are using mod_auth_kerb to hook into campus Kerberos servers for
authentication - works fine.

We mulled over the implications of these topography choices:
1) All projects in one repo.
        Pros: one location to find everything - less admin overhead
        Cons: does not allow granular (per project auth) via mod_auth_kerb
Location directives since all projects are in the same fsfs location
2) Projects get grouped into their own repos based on logical user groups
        Pros: allows more granular auth per project class
        Cons: Can't easily move projects between repos and maintain history?
(this is not clear - looks like maybe a manual dump and load may work)?

Q: What are the best practices?
How are others deciding these issues?
Thanks,
