I assume from your comment "Most of our programmers now use TortoiseSVN
on the client" that you're working in a Windows environment?
So, what's the process for getting the subversion.tigris.org FAQ page
changed? It still says "In practice, it's difficult to get the
Subversion repository running on non-Unix platforms; if you succeed,
we'd like to hear about it."
When I asked earlier, the consensus was that this statement should be
removed from the FAQ. Even though the 0.26.0 Windows installer worked
for me, as long as the website makes that official statement, Subversion
on Windows will be a hard sell to my people, no matter how many success
stories we have.
So, how do we get the ball rolling to change the FAQ? (Is the answer
hiding somewhere in HACKING?)

Thanks!
Heck, not only am I glad you posted it, but I'd say, cross-post it to
users@subversion.tigris.org :-)...
