I talked with Greg about this breifly...  Basically, the question I had was 
whether we wanted to keep the source locally and archive it periodically 
somewhere or whether we wanted to just keep the source in afs and do builds 
via shadow trees.  The later is easier, but Greg thought that it might be slow 
enough that people wouldn't want to do it.  I can understand that people might 
consider it a pain to have to copy stuff back and forth, but I'm not convinced 
that we shouldn't be doing that anyway, and I doubt the speed will really 
affect most builds that much...
