Looks like my mail program decided to reset my username for me. Hopefully this will go through as Andrew McIntyre instead of Cloudscape Testing. :)

I vote for option 1, because I would think that a developer who is checking out the code from svn should be able to check out one directory (in this case, derby/code) and get everything necessary to build a binary distribution and nothing more.

That means though, that I would include the user documentation in the code part of the repository, since we would want to keep that in sync with the code that it documents. The developer would also then have the current doc set in their build tree for reference, and a person could build a full binary distribution from the source distribution.

Are there source files for the docs, which are then generated by forrest? If so, I would think the repository would look something like:

derby/code {trunk/branches/tags}
- derby code
- derby tests
- compiled user documentation

derby/site {trunk/branches/tags}
- website pages
- source for derby documentatio
- derby technical papers

my .02$,
andrew
