Why wait for the svn 1.6.1? Here's why:

Yes, I know that there are some annoying bugs in TSVN 1.6 which are
already fixed. After all, I'm the one getting flooded with the crash
dumps sent in. But there's also important bug fixes done to svn which
cause crashes (during updates/merges), for which I also get a lot of
crash dumps. And then there's a bug in the diff lib in svn (which I also
fixed) and awaits one more vote to get backported.

Sure, I could push out TSVN 1.6.1 and not wait for svn 1.6.1. But that
would annoy a lot of people too - people don't like to update too often.
So no matter what I do, people will complain either way.
For those who don't want to wait, there are nightly builds available.

Complaining and name calling doesn't help. All you get if you start
ranting is that I create a nice email filter for your address which
removes your mail from my inbox immediately...
