Someday an svn repository will correctly interoperate with vanilla DAV
clients, i.e. will do 'autoversioning.' I've been working/thinking
about it.

The issue is that VSS, CVS, and DAV-sans-deltaV all share the concept
of "per-file" revision numbers, rather than svn's global ones.
Someone else on this list expressed frustration when trying to map svn
to the VSS api; you might run into the same problems with
Macromedia's version-control api, not sure...
