If you would like to, sure. If you want to stick with Bazaar, that's
fine with me, too, but I would like to see official links from
somewhere (like the Doc Marathon wiki page) to what you consider to be
the trunk for each.

If you do want to move it over to SVN, go ahead and make
numpy-refguide/ and scipy-refguide/ directories all the way at the
root as siblings to trunk/. Inside them, you can either make branches/
tags/ trunk/ or you can reuse the top-level branches/ and tags/.
Probably the former.
