[OT] svn at the ASF (was: 0.16 client with 0.17 server?)

http://svn.apache.org/repos/wiki/ (to go with svn.apache.org/wiki/)

The asf repository is the future home for all ASF code. It is barren at
the moment, but there is a project named serf that is going to go into the
commons project in there. Prolly within the next week or so. I've been
debating on whether to keep the CVS history or not.

At the moment, the use of SVN is optional, on a per-project basis. People
get to choose. When SVN hits 1.0, I believe the ASF will formally request
that projects begin planning a migration.

A lot of the Apache Jakarta projects are hitting the brakes, though, until
we see an Eclipse plugin for Subversion.

So, basically, there is a home for projects, but nobody is really moving
yet. I should probably upgrade ViewCVS on apache.org to help things along.

Cheers,
