opps, you complain is absolutly right: my mistake comes from a cvs-like
bad habit.
I have to take in mind that svn has smarter feature to be used.
Anyway I agree about the fact that it was not strictly needed
to copy that files, even if it is just a service lab...

I partially agree: I/we will be happy to receive contributions and to share
with whole
svn community this kind of modification proposal, but just to save svn
community time
we need a short (even if holidays do not help us:-) period to get some
prototype to
submit to community.
Anyway evaluate also the mixed approach: we describe to the community what
we would do
and produce nothing or something and wait for solutions/contribution from
power of community
(I confess you that I would prefer try to prodice something not only asking
somebody other
to work for me:-).
Be sure we will share all in english language.

best regards
Nebiac
