Ok, I have no real strong opinion on it. One large repo is just what

I trust your judgement. :)

I guess people these days mainly use jhbuild for large GNOME builds, so
maybe it's not remotely as interesting as I think it is. Is that what
the tinderboxes are using? Maybe blessing jhbuild as "gnome-build" or
whatever would put me more at ease. It just seems to me that our build
processes are very ad-hoc. Maybe they're not documented well, maybe
they work fine and don't need to be. I don't know, I am just rambling
at this point.

Oh please no. You're doing a great job and I am dying waiting for svn.
