I agree. Therefore I created the 'all' module, which will of course also
contain 'scripts'.


The existing modules 'mmbase' 'config' 'html' 'documentattion' will stay to
exist, but there is no need to use them.

'scripts' will be an alias for cvs co -d script mmbase/scripts or something
like that. This fact can be totally be ignored, in my view this is an
'implementation issue' for a situation completely the same as what you said:
that one cvs checkout can produce the directory tree which one needs to
compile and package mmbase.

cvs co -d mmbase all will do this, and I think this is the command that
then should be communicated to new users/developers. 

In my opinion it doesn't matter that there are shortcuts to get other things
like 'cvs co src', 'cvs co config', 'cvs co script' etc.
