1) Will the 1.3 repositories be accessible with 1.2 clients (I'm sure Subversion's versioning policy says they will be, but it's better to be safe than sorry!)

2) Will users see any advantages by doing fresh checkouts of the repositories, or are all new features/speedups obtainable using existing working copies?

"Older clients and servers interoperate transparently with 1.3 servers and clients. Of course, some of the new 1.3 features may not be available unless both client and server are the latest version. There is no need to upgrade your repositories; Subversion 1.3 can read repositories created by earlier versions. To upgrade an existing installation, just install the newest libraries and binaries on top of the older ones."

Btw, Matt, according to the above it's not necessary to do a dump/load cycle. Would you be able to find where this was mentioned and/or what features we miss out on by not running the dump/load? I'm having trouble spotting more information than this.
