Status of 1.3.1:
================

Candidate changes:

  * r17333, [and friends...]
    Fix issue #2306: modification of "svn:needs-lock" should adjust
    the native file system's read-only attribute within a WC.
    Branch: [merge branch to-be-created]
    Justification:
      Backport of a change to trunk which resolves buggy behavior on
      (at least) Windows and Mac OS X, behavior which is inconsistent
      with Linux.

  * r17910
    Fix the ability to link libsvn_swig_py on Solaris 10 when
    compiling with GCC 3.4.2.
    Justification:
      Allows successful builds of the Python bindings in a relatively
      common situation on Solaris via a minor tweak to our build
      machinery which restores its behavior from Subversion 1.2.3 and
      earlier.  The new behavior is required only for Cygwin, and this
      change makes that (conditionally) so.

Approved changes:

  * r17795, r17811 (testcase)
    Improve Ruby bindings memory management by supporting subpool. This change
    solves a program which uses Ruby bindings grows fat because making subpool
    each svn function call causes Ruby's GC at high frequency.
    Branch: swig-rb-subpool
    Justification:
      Without this change, a program which uses Ruby bindings grows over a
      hundred MB easily. Here is a problem case:
