Hey Quinn, Shan and Ray,

For what it's worth, I can officially confirm we're working on it.
It's a tough one, but we feel we're on the right way to tackle it.
Regarding the timeframe I can't promise anything. I can however give
some hints on why this is taking some time.

- Subversions 1.6 merging became a lot better, so we had to wait for
that. It was actually pretty tough to do 1.5>1.6 but we have it now.
- Subversions merging options are so complex that we need to make
choices to keep the ui usable, involving lots of discussions and
research.
- Merging as a problem is more then subversion alone. You also have to
deal with content/conflicts in a sensible way if you want to do it
right.

And Quinn, if your job gets less dreamy, shoot me an email ;-)

- Koen
