In VSS it is possible to mofiy files, that are in a deleted or somehow inaccessible state through one of its shares. If a parent project is deleted child items can be modified. If the parent project is recovered, the child items will show the modified state and not the state they had when the parent was deleted.
In subversion, a recover will recover to the state of the repository at the time of the deletion, including all child items.

Since it is not possible to commit to deleted items in subversion, the only solution is, instead of deleting the directory, to move it to some "attic" place, so that we still can perform modifications on it. Later if the item is recovered, we would move it out of the attic.
