Wow, that's a remark. 'Shockingly unstable'... I wonder where you got that
from? As someone who is using Subversion very heavily in production
environments, with code repositories which outgrow PostgreSQL's codebase size
by factors of up to 20 (mainly due to being binary source code for a strange
development platform) and having a very high update rate I *never* had any
problems except one or two short periods of inaccessibility due to web server
probs.
I would really like you to substantiate those claims, and please not from the
pre-beta time area.
