I think it is natural that people start asking questions when they are 
getting ready for the real thing.  I think everybody is going to pleased 
with the transition after a few weeks.

I was pleased when I moved my projects from CVS to arch, after one or 
two weeks.  And if I was pleased with arch, I guess it cannot go worse 
with subversion...

I also have a question though.  Is it possible to only mirror a few 
given branches when setting up an svk repository?  For me, for example, 
local branches off the release branches and mainline would be more than 
enough (and would allow me to get rid of the script I just described to 
FX in the other thread...), and would save me presumably 4 gigs.
