FWIW, I have a student, Alexander Lyubitskiy, that is working on SVN GUI 
frontend, and there are plans to eventually make a KDevelop (4) plugin out of 
it.

One important goal is to simplify handling of diffs and commits. For example, 
commit should pop up a window with entire diff where you can specify comments 
for individual changes, and exclude specific changes from commit, without 
going to other windows or manually reverting changes.

Long-term plans include support for local history, and UI for merging changes 
between branches.

I'm not sure what's the right approach for cooperation would be -- for now, 
this project is completely standalone, and not ready for practical use. Maybe 
a Wiki with ideas would be good?
