A couple comments and a question.

The date stuff is fixed in the latest svn.kde.org. 

svn log -r 3895 -v  https://svn.kde.org/home/kde  (randomly picking a number)

returns 
<snip>
r3895 | kulow | 1997-12-31 06:46:16 -0800 (Wed, 31 Dec 1997) | 2 lines
<snip>
or the right date.

Anonymous checkout works at svn.kde.org. So for checkout purposes no accounts 
are needed.

Is there any provision for getting a mirror of the repository? For my purposes 
(cvs-digest) having to access a remote repository will slow things down and 
may saturate the rather narrow pipe. It works now because I do the rsyncing 
and stuff at off peak load times. With people viewing the digest (which is 
cached) and looking at diffs (which aren't) it probably will be too slow, and 
put unnecessary load on the svn server. Also generating the statistics does 
some heavy reading of the repository. So I would prefer to have a local copy 
to work from.
