Better don't try to do a svn checkout over a slow line then. But coming to think of it, there is no reason to keep the individual files if a single ZIP of 5MB can hold them, I'd just need to figure out how to uncompress this at build time - which I'd have to do for the "test resources in Maven central" approach as well. > For me, a couple of megs is fine in SVN. So unless anybody objects I'm going to add a ZIP holding the ZIPs to svn (or a bzip2 compressed tar or whatever looks best).
