A few words of wisdom on this topic. As you know I also work on the
columba.sourceforge.net project. We waited a fair while after svn became
available migrating in Late July.

We have had intermittent and ongoing problems with SF's svn product.

svn notification messages sometimes take 3-12hrs+ to arrive (and
sometimes never arrive at all) - even in the mailing list archives!!!
This continues to today. I am waiting for one I did 16hrs ago still :-(

Random files in the svn image disappear (and then sometimes reappear but
sometimes not) and other files seem to get touched when nobody has
accessed the svn image at the times indicated :-(

There are noticeable replication delays. If you do a commit and
immediately do an update, if that update comes from the redundant
server, I have seen 20min - 1hr replication delays.

While the svn product in general has a richer feature set than cvs, the
way it runs at SF is quite poor :-(
