maintainable. I expect that changes on the subversion side could help (as you have mentioned, adding more properties, or clearly documenting one or more suggested ways of providing structure inside svn:author, or both), but I still hold the opinion that your pain is caused at least as much by FishEye as by svn. --apb (Alan Barrett)
