 For what it's worth, here are my two cents on svn-bp layouts:
 - it's easier to only manage the debian/ dir in SVN (mergeWithUpstream)
   mode, and is really a clean way of working on Debian packages (except
   it forces you to have patches below debian/ instead of directly in
   the .diff.gz)
 - in general, you don't grab old packages out of the SVN, so tagging
   each package upload or upstream release doesn't add a lot; instead, I
   found the "per-dist" layout quite useful (pkg-gnome uses a bit of
   that), top-level dirs are simply:
       experimental/
       unstable/
       stable/

   2c,
