(Non dev, de-lurking - and sending to the list *this* time, sorry Karl)

It's an Apache convention that Debian uses:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/content-negotiation.html

Executive summary: GETting http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html would
return faq.html for "most" users; users with an "Accept-Language: ja" in
their request header would receive
http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.ja.html instead. As far as I can
remember configuration *is* trivial, to the point where it's only
required for non-standard cases; YMMV. So no server config needed for
subversion.tigris.org.

Cheers
John
