RE: Action needed to get critical SVN related fix in Windows 7 SP1

                Hi,

The best way to make Microsoft know that you care about this issue is to
file a support issue with them. (It is a confirmed issue, so the support
incident fee shouldn't be calculated for it).

Most likely corporate users can get a specific update for this issue when it
is available. (I don't know if that is already the case). For the Subversion
community it would be much better if we get it released in a service pack
(or automatic update.

Thanks for everybody who helps us get this issue resolved!

                Bert

Erik, what is the method for this kind of feedback? Is it enough to leave a
message on the note? Or are you asking that we call our rep? Should we file
a ticket about it?

Someone posted about what is essentially Subversion issue 3574
(http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=3574) on the technet
forums and received a response from Neal Christensen, the NTFS Lead
Developer. He indicated that this is a known issue in Windows 7, but was
not scheduled for inclusion in SP1 because it was not receiving much
feedback.

If you have access to send Microsoft feedback on this issue, it is in
everyone's best interest if as many people do so as they can to get this
issue included in SP1. This seriously affects those using Windows 7 as both
a server and client for Subversion.
