IMO, that's no longer a blocker, the enums have been merged and only a few implementation quirks remain -- but they're not harmful. > * There's some discussion ongoing about svn_client_move7()'s API flags. > This needs resolution before releasing, too. > > Those are the things we could come up with.

I would consider "API Review" (and related JavaHL updates) to fall into that category, and it's happening right now.
