I suspect that "two copies" might eventually become "three, four, five" copies... Also, having parrallel copies does not help when modifying "shared" code in these copies. Actually, it would be even worse than using the normal branching feature of Subversion, as you wouldn't get neat "svn merge" help... Etienne -- Etienne M.
