What do I have to do to get Subversion to recognize that the certificate we are using for Mac OS Forge *is* issued by a trusted authority? I want a solution that does not involve every MacPorts contributor having to see this message and press "p"; I want a solution that does not involve anyone seeing this message at all.

I use the binaries that Jeremy Whitlock provides and which you can
download at CollabNet. This is what I get:

$ svn info https://svn.macosforge.org/repository/macports
Path: macports
URL: https://svn.macosforge.org/repository/macports
Repository Root: https://svn.macosforge.org/repository/macports
Repository UUID: d073be05-634f-4543-b044-5fe20cf6d1d6
Revision: 78307
Node Kind: directory
Last Changed Author: gwright_at_macports.org

His binaries use the OpenSSL that comes from Apple and that might be
the difference?

For MacPorts, I would think it would depend upon what is in:

/opt/local/etc/openssl
