Aparna, Can you share with me how you solved your proxy problem? I stopped work on this (plenty of other stuff to do!) but when I try again today I am have problems out of the box,

Melanie, it is comforting to know that I am not the only one seeing this issue :-).

Thanks,

Aparna

I couldn't get the proxy settings to work on the run.py invocation, but when I used proxy settings in ~/.subversion/servers some of the checkout was successful but other things failed subsequently. I'll try the beta run.py and use these directions.
