Yes, but does that svn repo allow anonymous access? If not, it's not
relevant. The fact that there are DDs involved isn't relevant either.
What's relevant is whether *everyone*, even SCO, Microsoft, or various
others that generally are seen as opponents of free software, can access
the files. If not, it's nothing compared to Debian. Of course noone
can access the next Debian stable yet -- it doesn't exist. But anyone
can download the packages in testing (including sources) or unstable or
even experimental, and get a good idea what the next release will
contain. If you fail to see the difference, you must be trying pretty
hard to misinterpret.
