I am not part of the svn developer team.
I'm just listening to the talk here
( sorry, do I annoy the dev@ team? )
my point is, that cygnus is unix on windows. and if you'd change the
folder name based on kind of "#ifdef WIN32" then you will probably
break it for all cygnus tools (and - see previous posting) make it harder
to do crossplatform development and to use shell scripts crossplatform.
but this is really just -my- -personal- opinion and use case.

:-)
c.a.t.

P.S.:
which MS-knowledgebase article covers the "dot-problem" of VC/IIS?
any links? Because if there are really so many developers requesting
a bugfix for this VC/IIS issue, MS will sure have to supply a patch.
