I discovered something weird with svn. I put your name into the README, and then attempted to put an svn commit message of "Added Frédéric Ballériaux". It rejected the message saying 'Can't recode string'. Weird! The accents aigue freaked svn out. It has something to do with locale confusion as described at http://svn.haxx.se/users/archive-2005-01/1165.shtml. I am too tired to sort it out, and just put you as Fred B in the commit message.
You need to set LANG to en_US.UTF-8 in TextMate's custom shell variables (or /etc/profile). I have made this default for beta 6.
Btw: the readme you comitted seemed to be in ISO-8859-1 (making stuff like svn blame etc. fail).
