As you may have noticed, we were all vary busy with the Alpha release,
which pushed everything else aside for a while. Please be patient, we

No, this mailing list is for Subversion developers. Quite a few of us

Oh come on. A vast majority of people on this list are volunteers,
sacrificing their spare time to make Subversion better. Just another
