Your A, C, and D items are not related to the B. items. (C is 
somewhat related, depending what a "package" is.) Where file are in 
the repository has little to do with where things are in a user 
installation. (Example: we have header files *.h, and *.pjd files, and 
they never get to the user's installation tree. Therefore your 
statement below seems not to apply:

We want to re-arrange the svn repository, period. This is the only 
subject I care about in your original posting. The arrangement of the 
installation tree can be a topic for another day.

A user installation is not the repository. The repository is for 
managing changes. It does not have to be related so closely to the 
architecture of the user installation tree. There can be a separate 
make file or other installation mechanism for the help files, but again, 
that is a subject for another day.

Does this make it clear? Do you now agree?


Dick
