Hi,

This is a pre-1.0.0 policy, once you've updated to 1.0.0 other compatibility
rules apply.

Yes, they should still work. Read the CHANGES file in the distribution if
you do important upgrades however. There support has been dropped for certain
(very old) working copy formats, but that's all announced there. If you want
to know what the format of your current working copies is:

'cat .svn/format'

HTH,

Erik.
