Just wanted to say thanks!
Subversion is an awesome product. 1.5 was a huge effort on a few key
features that will make the lives of millions of developers easier,
particularly those that administer repositories. Now branching/merging
becomes easier to manage. I know devs don't hear it enough, as they are
always mired in little issues, gripes, and dumb questions; but I wanted
to say thanks, subversion has made my life easier, and 1.5 seems like it
will make it even better. I don't have time to admin a repo, it's not
my job, but I am the only one to do it for my little group at the
moment, so the features are a blessing.
Once again.
Thanks!

Hey, thanks!
This might seem ungrateful of me, but here's how you can pay us back if
you ever want to, and it's simple: the next time you run into a bug,
follow the instructions at http://subversion.tigris.org/bugs.html and
report it.
It's the "follow the instructions" part that will be hard. Writing a
good bug report can take half a day sometimes, but a high-quality report
makes a huge difference to the developer who tries to fix the bug. So
instead of paying us with dollars, we ask users to pay us with their
time, when the moment comes! :-)
In the meantime, enjoy Subversion,
-Karl
