Docs still warn about .svn folders with Visual Studio

I looked at http://subversion.tigris.org/faq.html#vs-asp-net and it
warns that VS.Net has a problem due to ASP.Net.

According to
http://discuss.techinterview.org/default.asp?dotnet.12.270947.3 , this
is only an issue with Visual Studio 2003 (and I think I've read it
occurs if you load VS 2003 web projects into VS 2005).

Would it be possible to update this indicate that VS2005 doesn't have
this problem? Perhaps the following wording:

VS.Net 2003 has a subsystem called ASP.Net, which uses WebDAV to do
remote publishing through IIS. This subsystem rejects any pathname that
starts with ".". This causes a problem when you try to remotely publish
a Subversion working copy, because of the ".svn" subdirectories. The
error message says something like "unable to read project information".
This problem does not occur in VS.Net 2005 and later, except with
loading VS.Net 2003 web projects.

I imagine other people were as confused and worried as I was initially
to read this, wondering if they would have to use this, or if they'd
have problems if they didn't use it.
