I would not be against including .classpath files for each module into SVN (yes, my opinion on this has changed - at this point I guess the positives outweigh the negatives). If you want, I can even have IDEA produce these for you, and check them in? As for Maven 2 - I wouldn't be against using Maven to fetch dependencies. But I'm not sure that Maven is able to understand that artifacts are built from more than one module. And in any case - it is far, far more important that we work on the remaining coding tasks than it is to replace the already-working build right now. There is much work to be done before the final 3.0.0 release, and replacing the build right now is not going to help us get there. It is something I think we can revisit in a couple of months.
