You argued previously that VC6 was fairly old, probably no longer supported, 
and that it could be expected that any current windows developer would have a 
more recent version. I thought this argument was fairly compelling - I'd 
suggest just overwriting the VC6 project files (or if the filenames are 
different, deleting the old old ones).

If you think there's a really good reason to, then you could - but I'd guess 
it's not worth the trouble.

Yeah, svn:externals is the way to do this, it's certainly possible (though my 
experience so far with svn:externals is that it's somewhat fragile...)

I'm not sure exactly what commands you need to use to set this up. Someone 
else might know - who set up the externals stuff in icecast?
