Hi Mark! Yes, I'm using HTTP. Well, HTTPS, but from the rest of your response, that looks like a minor detail.
This tidbit about the library is interesting news. I just did a bit of mailing-list research on this subject. How do I switch the library? Is there a command line option or a config-setting for this? I'm using the precompiled version from collabnet, and have never actually compiled subversion myself.
