Dear Tobias,

Thank you for your reponse. RSS feed can be interesting but can not
check if the local copy is uptodate or not.
If I can retreive the current version in the server via RSS feed, I need
also to compare this version with the workcopy ...
I think this job can only be done with a SVNClient, I am right ?

I can write the systray application with notifications but I not sure to
write the internal SVNClient part for do the job, something as :

svn info localfolder => I get the local_revision and the project_URL
svn info *project_URL* => I get the server_revision in the server side,
so if ( local_revision != server_revision ) => Notification

I suppose that TortoiseSVN source code can help me but for instance is
difficult to extract the interesting part for me.

If anybody can help me (C++) will be great.

Cheers,

@livier.
