This is a public Release Candidate for Subversion 1.6.0.  This release  
starts the soak period for 1.6.0 and pending a lack of showstopper  
bugs, it is anticipated that this will become the final release in 4  
weeks.

The term 'release candidate' means the Subversion developers feel that  
this release is stable and ready to be tested in production use.  If  
this testing confirms its readiness, this candidate version will  
become the final released version. Therefore, we encourage people to  
test this release thoroughly.

As a note to operating system distro packagers: while we wish to have  
this release candidate widely tested, we do not feel that it is ready  
for packaging and providing to end-users through a distro package  
system. Packaging a release candidate poses many problems, the biggest  
being that our policy lets us break compatibility between the
release candidate and the final release, if we find something serious  
enough. Having many users depending on a release candidate through  
their distro would cause no end of pain and frustration that we do not  
want to have to deal with. However, if your distro has a branch that  
is clearly labeled as containing experimental and often broken  
software, and explicitly destined to consenting developers and  
integrators only, then we're okay with packaging the release candidate  
there. Just don't let it near the end users please.

Please note that due to various improvements made to the working copy  
library, the working copy format has changed. Using Subversion 1.6.0- 
rc2 on any working copy created by previous versions of Subversion  
will TRANSPARENTLY upgrade your working copy, which means that  
production-ready versions of Subversion will no longer be able to read  
it! Please be careful, if you have two versions of Subversion running  
on your machine, to not use the wrong version on a production working  
copy. If you inadvertently do upgrade your working copy, you can use  
the new tools/client-side/change-svn-wc-format.py script to restore  
working copy compatibility with previous versions of Subversion.

Release notes for the 1.6.x release series are not yet complete, but

Tried this out with $WORK packages (we include a Subversion RPM with our 
own application).  I was not able to build against our existing SQLite 
libraries because the configure script wasn't smart enough to find the 
libraries in ../sqlite-3.5/lib64.

Once I manually tweaked both configure and then the generated Makefile, 
compilation completed successfully (testing now) against our existing 
apache, apr, apr-util, and sqlite libraries.

My configure-fu is weak, so I'm afraid I don't know what to fix...

I found that 1.6 will not build on Mac OS X as a universal application.
The problem is not subversion's its because of missing header files
in the MacOSX10.4u.sdk. None of the SASL header files are included.

I noticed that the SASL dylibs in MacOSX10.4u.sdk are the same vesrsion
as in MacOSX10.5.sdk. Which I hope means the headers for MacOSX10.5.sdk
can be used.

What I did as a work around was:

	sudo mkdir /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk/usr/include/sasl
	sudo cp -v /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/usr/include/sasl/* / 
Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk/usr/include/sasl

This allows subversion to be built. But I cannot vouch for correct  
operation via SASL
as I have no idea how to test this.

You might like to release note this problem.

Barry
