Hey, thanks!

This might seem ungrateful of me, but here's how you can pay us back if
you ever want to, and it's simple: the next time you run into a bug,
follow the instructions at http://subversion.tigris.org/bugs.html and
report it.

It's the "follow the instructions" part that will be hard. Writing a
good bug report can take half a day sometimes, but a high-quality report
makes a huge difference to the developer who tries to fix the bug. So
instead of paying us with dollars, we ask users to pay us with their
time, when the moment comes! :-)

In the meantime, enjoy Subversion,
-Karl
