Real simple question...So far I've added a service to /lib/db/services.php and the function + parameter functions in /enrol/externallib.php.
Works great.
But of course when I update from CVS I get a big mess (using eclipse). I've read in /local/README.txt I should place all my custom stuff in there
/local/xxx/db/external.php - web services and external functions descriptions
So I need to create /local/enrol/db/external.php ???
And in there I comebine the stuff from services.php and externallib.php ???
Am I right or wrong?

AFAIK, you can put them in several plugins (e.g. mod, block etc.). Personally, I put them in local. Last time I looked it didn't mention web services in the local documentation but it does work.
The last place you want to put them is in lib/db/services for all the reasons you mentioned.

So here is what I did. I copied the custom services from /lib/db/services.php to /local/enrol/db/services.php and deleted them afterwards from /lib/db/services.php.
Did the same with /enrol/externallib.php
So now I have the following folder strcuture
/local/enrol/externallib.php
/local/enrol/db/services.php
I changed /version.php to run the upgrade script. But my webservices are now not showing up any more (they were in the database before).
What do you I have to do to make moodle discover the webservices in /local/ ????

OK got it myself. You need a version.php in the local/xxx folder!
