repository network access?

[Jeroen Janssen]

Hello,

I just want to say that one of the things I like about subversion is 
that it is possible to use http to access a (remote) repository.

I'm not able to use CVS, SSH, RSYNC, etc at work (due to the 
configuration of the firewall/proxyserver/etc) and unfortunately that is 
not going to change. However it IS possible to use the proxyserver to 
access http/ftp servers.

I don't know about other companies, but I assume that this might be a 
common problem (not being able to use CVS, SSH, etc). Fortunately, most 
companies have a working (http/ftp) proxy server for people (to browse 
the internet, etc).

I hope that (eventually) it will be possible to also use bzr through a 
(http/ftp) proxy server.

Any thoughts on this?


Best regards,
