Hey John,

Until I read your response mentioning SSL, I hadn't even noticed that the sourceforge URL starts with 'https'.  If I try to use 'http' instead of 'https', I get a similar error:

tmp$ svn co http://svn.sourceforge.net:443/svnroot/datadraw/trunk datadraw 
svn: PROPFIND request failed on '/svnroot/datadraw/trunk'
svn: PROPFIND of '/svnroot/datadraw/trunk': Could not read status line: connection was closed by server. (http://svn.sourceforge.net:443)

So, I would bet that your problem has something to do with the SSL encryption.  I don't know what could cause that problem, though.  My experience with subversion mostly involves using the svn+ssh:// protocol on a local network.

We use subversion quite a bit at work, with several versions of subversion floating around on different machines, so I don't think that a subversion version mismatch is your problem. (unless https:// is a different beast).

I hope this helps,
