FYI, Fitz did a conversion of apache-1.3, which is now located at

wow, that's a lot of data - 10 minutes later and I'm still downloading...


Wait! No! You don't want to check out http://svn.apache.org/repos/test/httpd/ ... you want to check out http://svn.apache.org/repos/test/httpd/trunk/

By checking out http://svn.apache.org/repos/test/httpd/, you're getting one copy of the httpd source tree for every branch and tag! That's a LOT of data!

This is going to be a recurring problem. Geoff did the intuitive thing, which turned out to be wrong. Not good.
