Hi Ram,

Yeah, seriously. :)

For what it's worth, if you'd like to propose a plan for getting push
support in the svn remote helper to work (what the architecture would
be like, what milestones would be involved along the way, and so on),
then I would be happy to help flesh it out.  Even forgetting about the
summer of code and setting a good example, I imagine such design
documents could be useful for developers and reviewers working on the
project to avoid getting lost.

Thanks,
Jonathan
