Thank you Igor. We would appreciate that 1.5 backport - at least we know
the trouble related to Powerbuilder adding extra lines in its exported
files. Maybe other users would like that backport too? Before switching to
1.6 we'll have to wait for your GA release - we're working on business
critical applications. Whatever, it's only a matter of months I guess.

We do not have any plans to update 1.5 version with this fixes, but we
can make a back port if this will be requested. From what we know usually
after new Subversion release in few months most of users update all their
clients and this is not an issue to use new version.
Changes for that impact PowerBuilder functionality is modified behavior
of SccDiff and SccQueryInfo functions which should improve compatibility
with PowerBuilder in aspect of obtaining of proper status for file in
various placeses.
Also added new option which tries to reduce side effect of PowerBuilder
which occasionally produces object extracted files with extra spaces or
empty lines which makes plug-in to belive that files was checked out, while
it is not.
These changes will not be visible for all PowerBuilder users, but only
for those who have issues with this functionality. So, in case you will
found some improovements with new version (1.6), and it will be important
to have the same advantage in version 1.5 we will make back port upon
request.

Dears Sirs,

just read about the benefits your 1.6.0 rc supplies to Powerbuilder
developers. Do you plan to deploy another 1.5.x release which integrates
those new features? And do you document in detail what behaviour is new or
changed?

Thanks a lot,
Herbert
