I worry that yet another round of "how to place files in SVN" discussion, will distract from real problems.
Fair enough. I'm not claiming this is urgent or even necessarily a problem-solver, so if there are more important things to discuss, please raise them and re-focus our attention.
IMHO, the modularity David is proposing, which, btw, I asked something like it twice before with regard to include directories being exclusive to libraries, but being mostly ignored, is a very important concern. This modularity would easier patching the trunk and seeing what broke what. The dependencies could also, latter, be given by boost.build. For that, though, even the header-only libraries should have their headers separate, forcing every dependency to be explicit in the Jamfiles. And, until now, I can't foresee any future problems, but maybe I'm being too optimistic, I dont know. Problems with CMake, maybe?
