Hi!

This thread started in boost.build.

I did now:

$ svn mv 
http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/sandbox-branches/birbacher/eclipse_contrib 
http://svn.boost.org/svn/boost/trunk/tools/build/v2/contrib/eclipse_plugins 
-m "moved Eclipse plugins into trunk"

resulted in:

svn: MKACTIVITY von 
?\194?\187/svn/boost/!svn/act/1e112c1c-1ada-11dd-a09a-f9584da4cb3b?\194?\171:

It seems I don't. IIRC I also tried it some time ago without success.

Should they? It would make the boost release bigger, but it doesn't add 
value to everybody as Eclipse plug-ins are not useful for everybody. 
Checking out the trunk already takes long enough, I think. At work I 
have copied boost into a svn repository and stripped it down to useful 
parts only: only headers, source and bjam, no examples, no 
documentation, no peoples page, no tests ... just to make checkouts faster.

I cross post this to boost.devel so everyone can take note of the switch 
to the boost.devel newsgroup (which is set as follow-up).

Frank
