Some packages maintained by the pkg-scicomp group do not have the upstream
sources in SVN, for instance glpk and xmds (which I used to maintain).  I
also much prefer have only the Debian files in SVN and work with patches. It
would be good though that you create trunk/ and tags/ directories for your
packages.

Unrelated to that: how did you succeed to have a personal SVN repoitory
(/svn/sam-hocevar) in svn.d.o?  Is it because you have good relations with
the French Alioth admins or because you are a DPL candidate? :-)

Amicalement,
