RE: Subversion/Eclipse Performance on Windows

Great idea if you can do it. "Unfortunately" a few of us develop for
ASP.Net using Visual Studio... which last I checked doesn't run on
Linux. Oh well, maybe the VS 2010 will have a native Linux version. ;)

Until then, it would be nice to see some performance improvements for
the windows stack. When it the new .svn structure going to happen? Is
this slated for 1.6 or later?

Thanks... this has been a great thread.
