Sourceforge to offer subversion

[latentdisposition]

I'm sure some of you have already seen this.

Dear SourceForge.net User,

As we enter a new calendar year, our focus remains on further
improving the quality of our service. To that end, I am pleased to
announce that SourceForge.net will offer Subversion in early January
2006, initially as a beta program available to approximately 50
projects. Then, if the Subversion beta period proceeds as smoothly as
we expect, we will deploy Subversion site wide by March, 2006.

Going forward we intend to support both CVS and Subversion, thereby
offering the two version control systems most widely used in the Open
Source community.

In addition to our Service Operations Team's progress regarding our
Subversion offering, I am also pleased to report that our Enhancement
Team and Product Management continue to make significant progress on our
upcoming redesigns of search and the software map. I'll provide details
next month.


Thank you once again for your continued support. The SourceForge.net
team wishes each of you a healthy and happy 2006.

Jay Seirmarco
General Manager, SourceForge.net

I wonder if Niko can get one of the 50 beta slots.
