doc & www have been in SVN for a couple of months - see
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/doc/ and the README files in the CVS repo.
I'm not sure what has or will happen to projects.

>( ls doesn't easily show what's in /pub/FreeBSD/development/FreeBSD-SVN  )

See http://svnweb.freebsd.org/

With SVN, tags and branches are explicit commits so you could just
follow the mailing lists.  Alternatively, look at:
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/release/
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/releng/
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/stable/
