Hello,

I've upgraded the OrcaWare Minds Subversion server to the official
0.29.0 release.

You will need a 0.28.0 or newer release of the Subversion client to
communicate with the Subversion server.

Below is what's new in this version compared to the previously
installed 0.28.0 server.

Version 0.29.0 (released ?? Sep 2003, revision ????)
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/tags/0.29.0

 User-visible changes:
 * 'svn status' now streams its response.  (r6913, #1426)
 * 'svn status' now recurses into externals (r6913, #1428)
 * new 'svnadmin verify' command to verify repository data (r6851, #1074)
 * SSL changes:  (r6958, #1371)
     - dropped support for PEM-encoded client certs, only accept PCKS12 now.
     - 'ssl-authority-files' is now a list of CA files
     - no more 'ssl-client-cert-type' and 'ssl-client-key-file' variables.
 * new svndumpfilter option: '--preserve-revprops' to keep props on empty revs
 * mailer.py improvement:  handle multiple match groups (r6940)
 * remove in-repos/on-disk repository template features, till post-1.0 (r6965)
 * various cleanups to the Book
 * other bugfixes: switch deletion bug (r6890, #1496), status
   repos-delete bug (r6913, #1469), reversion of '.' (r6953, #854).

 Developer-visible changes:
 * GUI developers take note: prompting API changed (r6928, #1214)
 * now compile against neon-0.24; 0.23.9 support to be dropped soon. (r6958)
 * various improvements to Perl/SWIG bindings
 * tree re-org:  non-core utilities split into 'tools' and 'contrib' areas.
 * some gen_make.py/gen-base.py improvements
 * configure.in CFLAGS bugfix (r6963)
 * stop calling deprecated APIs in APR, in preparation for upcoming APR-1.0.


Version 0.28.2 (released 29 Aug 2003, revision 6946)
http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/tags/0.28.2

 User-visible changes:
 * MAJOR BUGFIX:  revert revision 6764.

      The new history-searching code was over-stressing our use
      of BerkeleyDB transactions, causing checkouts to go
      twice as slow and lose all concurrent-client scalability.

      This is a temporary fix for a larger design problem.  See issue
      http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1499


Version 0.28.1
(released 28 Aug 2003,http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/tags/0.28.1)

  There are no changes in this release.
  It is strictly an updated release, build with the correct version
  of autoconf; autconf-2.57

Best,
Blair
