The Gentoo team recently tried to test it with their portage tree.  It
seems there are still a couple issues with big repositories.  May have
been worked out in 1.0 though.

The migration tools need some work.  The svn team is using one of the

OpenBSD)

The subversion team does use svn themselves.

I use it at home.  I like it a whole lot more than cvs.
