Hmmm, that sounds nice. I suppose I am biased towards dev time itself.
I will be able to go straight in without auth.
Perhaps:
(pools would be automatic)
svnConnection conn = new svnConnection(reposPath);
conn.begin();
svnPath sp = new svnPath(conn, path);
sp.getLogs();
sp.move(newpath);
sp.add(object);
svnFile f = sp.getFile(subpath);
f.read(); //Whole String
f.write(data); //Whole String
conn.commit(msg);
conn.rollback();

Experience with the bindings -- especially the Python bindings -- has
shown us that typical users want language bindings with the look and
feel of APIs they're familiar with in that language.
Which is to say, Java APIs should look like Java APIs, not C APIs.

This example is quite helpful, but deals with the libsvn_fs API. I
assumed that you were trying to get the data via the RA layer. Is this
not the case? Can you go straight to the repository's file system with
no need for auth?
Please elaborate on the specifics of what you're trying to do.
Thanks, Dan
