*  latest version (6) uploaded: http://svn.mythtv.org/trac/ticket/4397

* I have added the proxy code (actually already had it written prior to your
suggestion, but we had the same idea), but as you suggested SVN features
don't work through typical firewalls, so I've added a feature to avoid the
auto-SVN-update , anf if possible continue.

* I have also fixed other typo's, including the SVN checkout process
checking-out way more than was needed, AND to the wrong folder.

* couple of other typos fixed.

* I think I have all the bugs now, except for the mysql-server.msi thingy
not autodownloading.

* regarding the DXSDK header files - my suggestion is that we just wack the
3 needed header files, a README.txt explaining whatit is and a LICENCE file
into a zip file , and put it on a server somewhere.  Given that .h files
document the API in the rest of the software/sdk (which we don't need), I'd
think that they fall under the "documentation" section of the EULA which
says that: "4. DOCUMENTATION.  Any person that has valid access to your
computer or internal network may copy and use the documentation for your
internal, reference purposes.".   Which translated says to me that "any
valid mythtv developer may use it for mythtv development purposes by
accessing it from a mythtv related server (like trac or svn)".   I am not a
lawyer.
