 The other way is to get them from http://alagazam.net: you'll need the Windows installer `Setup-Subversion-1.6.12.msi` and the Python 2.6 bindings `svn-win32-1.6.12_py.zip`. 
 
-After unzip'ing, be sure to rename the `libsvn/_*.dll` to `libsvn/_*.pyd`, but of course leave the `libsvn_swig_py-1.dll` alone). 
-
-Same remark as above for the `PATH`: don't forget to prepend the directory containing the Subversion libraries installed by the `Setup-Subversion-1.6.12.msi` installer (e.g. `C:\Program Files (x86)\Subversion\bin`)
-
+The Algazam installer updates the PATH automatically to point to the new binary directory.
+
+The python-bindings zip file has a folder structure of
+{{{
+  svn-win32-<ver>
+    python
+      libsvn
+      svn
+}}}
+
+The `libsv`n and `svn` folders should be extracted into the `Python26\Lib\site-packages` directory.
+Then rename the binding DLLs: change `libsvn/_*.dll` to `libsvn/_*.pyd` (don't change the name of `libsvn_swig_py-1.dll`). 
+
+* Note: if !CollabNet is providing SWIG bindings for Python 2.6, I can't find them. In fact, since the move to apache.org, I can no longer find the 2.5 bindings.
+* Also note: the Subversion directory structure of the Algazam distro is slightly different than the !CollabNet one: all the executables are in the `bin` subdirectory.
