i know i've harped on this before but make sure you're not misled by
the term "project." in subversion, there is technically no such
thing as a "project." a subversion repo is simply a directory
structure with subdirectories you can interpret any way you want.

if you want to interpret some of those directories as "projects,"
that's up to you. but subversion itself doesn't recognize any such
thing. just sayin'.
