I tried this URL first but did not work;so, I switched to the other
URL (without repos).
But, it looks like, some problem with SVN setup@office system.
svn co htp://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk is workig well from my home system.

Yes, I went thru' guidelines available here. I will follow them.
May be, I will able to mail the patch (wuth diff) to-morrow as code is
locked up in my office system.

That's probably because the URL is wrong, the correct one is
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk
If you have a change ready, apply it first to your local working copy of
trunk, make a patch of it (use svn diff) and send it in attachment to
this mailing list.
Check the hackers guide for more info:

This change (minor) has taken quite long to be done b'coz of lack of time :-((
Now am ready with the changes but am confused or unsure how to commit
the changes.
Running svn co http://svn.collab.net/svn/trunk svn_faq does not work
and exits with errors.
Is there any other way to do this ?
Should I install win version of SVN client to checkout the repo ?
Just FYI, I was viewing the trunk/www/faq.html via Viewvc interface
provided in Subversion site
(http://svn.collab.net/viewvc/svn/trunk/www) and unknowingly clicked
on "download" link.
Now, I see the entire FAQ page in my browser but the URL is this:
http://svn.collab.net/viewvc/*checkout*/svn/trunk/www/faq.html
I assume this does not mean the file is checked out (like in
ClearCase) but just wanted to post the status here.!

The web pages on subversion.tigris.org are stored in the subversion
repository under trunk/www. If you make a change in one of these files,
those changes will automatically be updated on the website (with a
one-hour delay or so).
