Subversion

My brother Matt set up a subversion repository on this site. It seems to work fine. If you want to add more date formats, go ahead. (You'll have to ask one of us before you can commit, I guess.)

The nice thing about subversion is that if you know cvs, getting started is like falling off a log. Furthermore as (the other) Matt explained, each commit is a revision of the whole thing. You proceed along the trunk, and have another directory hierarchy for branches, and yet another for tags. I guess that's the suggested default setup. Whatever it is, it's a clear product management default that makes you think about the project in the right way from the start.

Not that we're going to be releasing any earth shattering software from that repository, but it's nice to know that given enough monkeys and enough keyboards, we have the right technology to do so. Hey, the Internet is a big place.
