Hey,
I managed to get my code checked into the trunk line of lxml just now. I just checked in my old vlibxml2 tree under the trunk of lxml's trunk.
How do you want to co-ordinate the source tree changes? Is there an automated build process that I should be aware of? I'm on an OSX machine so I don't have access to valgrind - I was wondering if I can see build results that show that memory leaks are not actually happening.
What's the intent of having the branch vs the tag directories in the svn repository? Are tags considered releases?
That is a standard convention for svn repository layouts. svn only ever compares directory trees. So, effectively, branches are copies of directories, and so are tags, except that tag copies aren't modified after copying while branches are. Later, when you want to merge a branch, you let svn compare two directory trees and apply the difference to another one. I strongly suggest reading some svn documentation. I can recommend the svn book (http://svnbook.red-bean.com/). If you already know CVS, there's a chapter in there for those who switch... Philipp
