Submitted details for adding Cygwin packages to the Apache Subversion 
Binary Packages web page:

	https://subversion.apache.org/packages.html

to the Subversion ML:

	https://lists.apache.org/list?users@subversion.apache.org:2022-1

Also noticed that current subversion cygport, patches, etc. are not yet 
checked in to the git-cygwin-packages repo:

https://cygwin.com/git-cygwin-packages/?p=git/cygwin-packages/subversion.git;a=summary
