Sorry about that too.

I don't understand why this has such a low priority.

Soon we'll have 20 repositories and a lot of people are going to check out
at various times and I'm expecting a LOT of mails, asking about the
repository name :-( Especially since repos names are case-sensitive. There
is a reason why most SCM systems have this capability...

Doing a "svn list repos" would be very helpful to the users and would take a
burden of the admin (especially if you could attach comments to the
repositories which would appear in this listing.)

While this is not a showstopper, it is something I'd expect from a
production-quality versioning system (hence not POST 1.0)

But at least you're not in the basement yet ;-)
