Ok, I understand, Indeed, because hgsubversion is just  one-time used tools,
not much people will using of it. That's why I cross-post it of mercurial, I
hope some-one ever used hgsubversion will give some feedback, but because of
my bad English or someone other reasons, no feedbacks, but other voices
appeared, Ineed, in bazaar community, the bzr-svn and bazaar is sharing the
same mailling list, maybe I was affected by that.
Indeed, for hgsubversion this kinds of tools, have an independent mailling
list is not an good idea, because of little users, and can not receive
enough user suggestions.
