Right. I know that the Apache Subversion team would love to hear about any problems. As Noel mentions, the ASF repository is quite huge. We're over 1.1 million revisions, containing a couple hundred projects and millions and millions of lines of code. We've got international replication, backups, security, awesome admins, and a development team to keep it all running smoothly. I can understand people desiring the Git style of workflow, but that is different from a problem inherent to Subversion itself. So... if you guys *did* have issues with the tool, then we'd really like to know! "I can fix it... my dad's got an awesome set of tools..."
