[PD-dev] time for svn?

[Thomas Grill]

Hi Hans-Christoph,
i see. In fact, i turned off the automatic mirroring several months ago, 
so that the SF cvs is updated only when the respective project is under 
a buildable condition.
Mirroring releasing only doesn't seem too good to me, since i don't 
release very often due to the work that is connected to preparing the 
packages. Fixes made in the meantime wouldn't be available for users in 
this case.

greetings,
Thomas
