Testimonials page for SVN website

I'd like to showcase testimonials on the website (with the permission of those who provide them, of course), in a new page called something like Subversion Success Stories or maybe just Testimonials. The title isn't important right now. The important point is that we are trusted by commercial and

I think y'all should promote something to mainstream, even if the performance isn't what you want it to be (for this feature). Better slow IMO, than "does the wrong thing". If y'all promote neither it'll just decay away from trunk and then risk never going live. As it doesn't affect any existing
