Regarding the "The specified baseline is not the latest baseline, so it may not be checked out." message: ASF has two Subversion hosts, one in EU and another in US. The EU one acts as a write-through proxy. The above message is displayed when the EU slave happens to be several revisions behind the US master. It is rare, but it happens. I just experienced it when trying to commit at 12:59:54 MSK. I think that the following commit was causing the delay that I observed: http://svn.apache.org/viewvc?view=revision&revision=891611 The mitigation is to wait a minute and retry your commit. The "Reopen commit dialog after a commit failed" option in TortoiseSVN helps here.
