Comment:
It's no longer called JavaSVN, but SVNKit. And yeah, as much as we're
uncomfortable with it, we should mention it. We should mention it
*because* we're uncomfortable with it, and yet it continues to grow in
popularity/usage, because of the increasing popularity of the 'Subversive'
Eclispse plugin. Thousands of users are using this plugin, and they're
not even aware that they're using a "clone" of subversion, rather than the
real thing. I think that at a minimum, it's our duty to make them aware
of this. We don't need to explicitly bad-mouth SVNKit or Subversive
plugin, but we should at least use our "best practices" judgement powers
to warn people about the general lack of bus-factor (and developer
community) around SVNKit.
Assigning to cmpilato in 1.5... for the developer chapter, I think.
