Dear all,
I've been away for a period, but I feel I agree with all you.
 From my understanding only people that have already contributed with 
code (via addons or patch) and and that have shown their skill can get 
SVN access.
So Colin, send your contribute and I'm sure you can get SVN access in 
the near future.
