I think you just want to have the Subversion repository publicly accessible with an anonymous account set up that only has read-only access, right? Commit access would still require authentication via whatever means you have in place. Highly recommend using the Apache WebDAV plugin for that, since it lets you do all the authentication with Apache, rather than Subversion, and Apache supports all kinds of things, including client certificates and HTTPS for free.
And since Subversion lets you easily have multiple repositories within a single tree, it's a snap to have run a few different repositories and use them all at once. One for your public stuff, one for private stuff, one for client work, etc. The only thing to watch out for is projects that share resources, because Subversion has some limitations with crossing repository boundaries in certain cases (copies, for example). cheers, barneyb On 8/24/05, S.
