Subversion 1.8 in RHEL/Centos repositories

Hello,

I am newbie in subversion administration or development issues. So I am sorry if my question looks stupid.

Why Subversion 1.8 RPMs were not included to RHEL 7 / Centos 7 / Oracle Linux 7 (native) repositories, though it was released on 18th June 2013 and RHEL 7 GA was introduced on June 2014? Even now, 28 months after Subversion 1.8 release date I cannot find it in Centos repositories.
e.g. http://merlin.fit.vutbr.cz/mirrors/centos/7.1.1503/os/x86_64/Packages/

Why is it available only via 3rdparty repositories, e.g. via WanDisco? Who decided not to create RPMs of Subversion 1.8 for RHEL 7 based distributions.

I would like to install Subversion 1.8 from native distribution repository and wonder why it is not available...

With regards

Leos
