Chuck:

Sorry for not getting back sooner, I haven't been feeling all that well the
last few days (was diagnosed with "Lymphadenitis", although that term really
doesn't mean anything useful... "lymph nodes, of the neck, there's something
wrong with 'em").

I would be happy to maintain this patch.  I have various things in it I want
to clean up, and can keep it up to date as Subversion changes (which I think
I already need to do; I know for sure I can now ditch my worst hack as they
finally added "svn ls" support).

One question I have is about the usage of PHP extensions in Horde.  If I
were to try to use SWIG to automatically generate a PHP extension that
talked directly with the Subversion back-end libraries (as Subversion is
already decked out for SWIG support so as to get their Python bindings), and
used that, would that be something acceptable in a Horde project?  And then,
what if it were an option, where calling out to the various Subversion shell
utilities was still a config flag?

Sincerely,
Jay Freeman (saurik)
