[dna-dev] Releasing 0.6

[Feu Teston]

Guys,

I was running some tests using SVN Repository Source. I got a few NPEs  
really easy to solve and also some issues related to requests trying  
to load "jcr:content[2]" properties from nodes. I was about to create  
a jira issue for this, but I saw you guys are already working on  
tickets DNA-240 and DNA-36 related to SVN connector.
I appreciate if you guys could put DNA-240 back on release 0.6 since  
we from Caravela are very interested on using DNA connectors,  
including svn connector.

Best regards,



Feu Teston
