Hi Oliver,

Graphical clients like Versions aren't wrappers around the Subversion 
command-line tools. The command-line tools and GUI clients are each consumers 
of the Subversion APIs, and the Subversion 1.7 APIs represent their biggest 
overhaul to date. It's not a case of just recompiling and sending it out the 
door.

The Cornerstone people had a good blog post a few months ago addressing some of 
these same issues:

Thanks,
