+</div> <!-- .bigpoint -->
+
+<p>You can install Subversion by compiling
+ its <a href="#source-release" >source code release</a> directly, or
+ you can install one of the <a href="packages.html" >prepackaged
+ binaries</a> if there is one for your operating system. Unless a
+ release has "<tt>alpha</tt>", "<tt>beta</tt>", or "<tt>rc</tt>" in
+ its name, it is tested and considered stable for production
+ use.</p>
+
+<p>When upgrading, just install "on top of" the older release.
+ Subversion 1.x is forward-compatible with any newer 1.y. No
+ repository upgrade is required. As long as client and server both
+ have the same major release number (1), olders clients will work
+ with newer servers and newer clients will work with older servers.
+ The only caveat is that if the client and server minor release
+ numbers don't match (e.g., 1.0 and 1.1), then some of the features
+ of the newer release may not be activated.</p>

+ <li><p>Download the latest distribution from the <a

+
+ <li><p>Build and install it according to the instructions in the
+ <a href="http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/INSTALL">INSTALL</a>
+ file in the top level of the distribution. You will end up with a
+ 'svn' binary in the <tt>subversion/svn/</tt> subdirectory
