what you could do is this:
* Make a backup copy of your current work and folder layout (make absolutely sure you don't forget anything). 
* Delete the folder in your tree.
* "svn update" in the parent folder of the folder(s) you deleted, this
 will restore everything as it is in the repo.
* Now "svn move" the old files to their new locations, you can also move entire folders if need be until you have the same structure as in your new work. * copy the new files from your backup into the new folders, make sure you don't accidentally copy ".svn" folders replacing the ones already there, but replace any files already there. * use "svn status" to see which files you have not yet added and "svn add" them.
I did like you suggested and it almost worked as expected. Only, when I do e.g. "svn move applications/ en/" it does move the folder "applications" and all its containing files into the folder "en", but it still leaves (the now empty) original "applications" folder behind. 
Is this expected behaviour?
I couldn't commit these changes yet (maybe that would resolve that issue) because for svn I'm not yet a valid member of the project, it appears. Or do I have to initiate a secret handshake before the first commit?

Humdinger
