Binary Releases

Evening all,

Perry Metzger and I have volunteered to work on improving Subversion's
binary releases. We're hoping to pick up on some of the momentum from
improving the release process and the buzz generated on users@ after the
delayed Win32 binary release for 1.0.1.

First things first, we need to identify the platforms that we currently
officially or unofficially release binaries for. I'm going to blatantly
plagiarize the list Perry sent out earlier. Starting with this list, are
their any platforms that currently included that don't need to be? More
importantly, are their platforms that are not included that really should be?
