The project is called SvnBridge and it will work for CodePlex as well as your own Team System environment which is an unexpected bonus. The documentation explains that the bridge works entirely on the client-side so you do not have to install anything onto the server. This functionality was supposed to be available on CodePlex by now but it appears they have some issues to work out.

Once this is done it will be a great addition to Team System. I would like to have TortoiseSVN installed so that I can get updates from within Windows Explorer instead of firing up Visual Studio for everything.

I have suggested to people that you can use Subversion for more than just managing software. I know of one company that is managing their office documents with Subversion. It gives them version control for their spreadsheets so they can access old versions and even create branches. With SvnBridge this could be done with Team System transparently. I just hope the update to Team System this year adds many of the features most developers really miss after using Subversion. In the meantime at least we have the Team System Power Tools.
