I'm affraid "ranting about it" does not really help: it puts
Subversion in a bad light, but doesn't really solve anything. So,
instead of just stating what's wrong all the time, it would be nice if
you started actually contributing toward the goals you think need to
be achieved.
By the way: there are users (lots) who are actually not at all that
uncomfortable with the current situation: I'm my own sysadmin with no
network disks around. There's nothing to be hidden on this system.
There are many others with situations alike, so plainly removing the
current support is *no* option for me, unless you offer me a
password-less alternative which also doesn't introduce additional
setup requirements.
Bye,
Erik.
