Could I recommend/request that in addition to the main trunk, the
branches and tags hierarchies (assuming you have them) also be
accessible through SVN? It'd be especially useful to be able to do
something like:

        svn ls svn://svn.insecure.org/nmap/tags

to see the list of all official releases. Ditto for the development
branches that might be going on. Before sending this, I tried to see if
perhaps these hierarchies were available as peers to the 'nmap'
hierarchies, but on all requests except for /nmap I got authentication
required prompts.
