Hi, It's been a while since I last made a complete 'svn up' from our base repository. We have now 197 packages in main [1], and looking quickly, we seem to have 220 packages in our repository [2]. Operations become long. How would you feel towards moving to a structure similar to the pools in the Debian archive?

I agree, and i think (hopefully) Debian Python Modules Team will benefit of this experience in the near future. If you plan to write a script for the move, we could contact the costa admins first and coordinate the run (date and time), i'm not sure it's a cheap move (probably not) in svn.
