Moral of the story: Switch to a better Source Control Management Tool. I have experienced issues in both Linux (both command line, rapid, and eclipse svn plugin subeclipse), cygwin (command line), and Win32 (native using only TortoiseSVN). I have experienced issues in all three. With only one lost day consider yourself lucky. SVN corruption is just a matter of time.
Boost will not consider another source code management tool without a complete plan for hosting the Boost repository, including details regarding who administers the server, where that server is located, whether it can handle our bandwidth requirements, etc, along with a plan for migrating all of Boost's tools and processes on all platforms to this new system. Without a comprehensive plan, any discussions of alternative source code management systems for Boost are merely noise on this mailing list, and distract us from what we do best: build great libraries for the C++ community. - Doug
