1. In what repository will the artifacts go?

IIRC, there is some additional repository. I think it wouldn't be good
to have them in /repos/asf/

2. You will have to upload Javadocs.

With svn 1.6 I used an Ant snippet similar to the following to remove all files,
but leave the directories structure intact:
[[[
                <delete defaultexcludes="false">
                        <fileset dir="${path}">
                                <exclude name="**/.svn" />
                                <include name="**/*" />
                        </fileset>
                </delete>
]]]

After that I would copy the new files over the old structure and commit them.

With svn 1.7 that would be easier, because It does not have .svn subdirectories.

I am already using svn 1.7 (TortoiseSVN nightly builds) for two weeks
and am quite happy with them. There is a thread at dev@subversion that
the first alpha/beta for 1.7.0 is tentatively scheduled on June 1.

3. Will we migrate our website to the new CMS?
https://blogs.apache.org/infra/entry/the_asf_cms

Have you thought whether you proposal will facilitate such migration,
or impede it?
