Hi All,
One more observation on bdb structure doc. Find the attached patch.

I could not see REP-OFFSET (part of WINDOW which is part of
REPRESENTATION DELTA KIND-SPECIFIC)implemented in subversion yet.
Shall we mention the same in the doc.

With regards
Kamesh Jayachandran

[[[
'fulltext' representation has 1 to 1 relationship with strings.
'delta' representation has 1 to many relationship with strings.
