Subversion Project Information

Hi,

We are considering switching from CVS to Subversion.

As part of that process I need to gather some information on the
vitality of the project.

If anyone can add/correct to what I already have gathered from the
website/articles/google, I'd appreciate it -- it will help me to get
Subversion approved for use.

Thanks!
