I've tried to make them implement that too. But no luck (they're quite
busy right now implementing locking).

If it were just http, then I guess it wouldn't be a big problem. But
Subversion uses DAV to speak to the repository, therefor it's not just
simple http.

That's not possible. At least not without hacking the subversion code.
But maybe someone wants to send a patch to the Subversion guys which
implements this kind of feature.

Or try asking again, but this time without mentioning TSVN but the CL
client ('svn ls' doesn't list the available reps either). You know,
once they read the word "TSVN" the devs there just assume that the
user used the wrong mailing list and don't even read on. (I guess I
wouldn't either because of the big amount of mails I already get on
this list here).
