Have you considered adding the functionality to SvnAnt instead? I am
not involved in any way with SvnAnt, but since it is part of this
project, which I own, I can see the activity (which is zero). No one
has really been maintaining it for years. If you want to add
features, I can grant you commit access. There is another user that
did this and made a release a while back. They might still be able to
help make a new release.

svnClientAdapter is maintained and used from Subclipse (as well as
SvnAnt). We do not do releases of it though. It is just released as
part of Subclipse and I maintain it based on how I need it in
Subclipse. You can just grab trunk and build it if you want.
