~/work/fooN

Where fooN are svn (possibly other) working directories.

My personal (at home) is slightly different cause I have a lot more stuff than just code revision controlled.

  ~/work/art/
  ~/work/src/
  ~/work/sys/
  ~/work/web/
  ~/work/words/

"sys" is /etc and other system files from various machines. "web" hearkens to the days when websites were static html and images. Probably should merge that with "src" someday

In src I have some directories such as "hints", "icons", "perl", etc. into which to stuff bits of things that don't deserve their own VCS repository.
