I think those questions should be answered by the release team. My 
understanding of this move towards new svn structure is that the service 
developers should prepare their services and put them in that new branch 
before official use of new svn structure.


What should be updated/changed to move other services to the new structure?
First you have to create a separate directory for a service and put 
there the sources which are specific for your service. Generic classes 
should be located in the base (generic for all services or type of 
services). You can follow RRD MA to see how to write Ant script but it's 
not necessary (my personal opinion is not to limit a developer if they 
think the scripts could be done other way). Important is to use the same 
names for script calls (pre-install, configure, deploy, undeploy, test).
