Let's keep the SVN repo structure as flat as possible.

Note that I think a project's name should be the dotted name of the
Python package (if one such package exists), so it should be

  Products.CompositePage/
  Products.PluginRegistry/
  Products.PluggableAuthService/
  Products.Zelenium/

instead of

  CompositePage/
  PluginRegistry/
  PluggableAuthService/
  Zelenium/

Why? Because it's a pattern we're following with other package projects
already:

  zope.file
  zope.formlib
  ...
  zope.testing

Also, what is "Zope-Products"? Seems like it's a bag for historical
baggage. In that case it can go because that baggage is still in
revision history on older release branches...
