OK, I just removed all branches that hasn't been touched in 2 years:

We could probably remove more branches, but 2 years seemed like a safe cutoff.
I'm not convinced this is such a good idea. Some of the deleted branches don't seem to have much use nowadays, but some might; I'm thinking of the old RC and the SPIRIT_MINIBOOST ones.
At the very least I would have waited a few months before proceding, or maybe just moved branches to old_branches.
You can get them back, you know. They're still there in the revision history.
The more I have to do with Subversion the more I think that making tags and branches plain directories was an extremely bad idea.
