OK.
Assuming lazy consensus on this for now then I'll start on this right away.
Actually I already did some preliminary work locally and got things converted and working within half an hour 
The restructuring of svn itself probably will take most of the time.
As I think these new bridges versions should all assume portlet 2.0 runtime environments, we better bump their major version to indicate this, e.g. bridges-common-2.0 and bridges-velocity-2.0
I plan to do the following:
- create a PB JIRA issue for all this
- create new PB JIRA versions bridges-pom-1.0, bridges-common-2.0, bridges-velocity-2.0 and bridges-site as a start
- create a new portals svn site subproject for bridges and (start) moving the little bridges xdocs we have over (maven-2, no multiproject)
- create new svn /bridges-pom, /bridges-common and /bridges-velocity project trees with their own trunk/branches/tags folders
- create a new bridges-pom:1.0:pom project
- move current bridges/trunk /common/* under /bridges-common/trunk and /velocity/* under bridges-velocity/trunk,
- for commons and velocity, remove their maven-1 configurations and their xdocs and update their maven-2 pom.xml
- adjust the current bridges/trunk maven-1 and maven-2 projects to accomodate for these components been moved out
All in all, this should take a few hours the most and allow us to release new bridges-pom, bridges-common and bridges-velocity shortly.
Other bridges which qualify for updating and subsequent 2.x releases like maybe struts and groovy can follow later on.
