1) Subversion by Brian Fitzpatrick
Subversion is an Open Source Version Control System whose mission is
"To provide a "compelling replacement for CVS." Subversion reached
version 1.0 in February, 2004.
Brian Fitzpatrick will talk about the features of Subversion,
differences between Subversion and CVS, and possible directions for
Subversion's future development. He will also discuss how Subversion
handles Mac OS X specific problems (Bundled directories, etc).
Brian Fitzpatrick is a Senior Software Engineer at CollabNet, Inc
http://www.collab.net/ working full-time on the Subversion project. He
is also a co-author of the book "Version Control with Subversion" to be
released in June by O'Reilly and Associates.
2) all the other stuff
We will, as usual, also have Q & A, a discussion of future meeting
topics and dates. We are very thankful to Kiwi Internet Group for the
list-serve, and other resources they have provided to support this
group. As special thank you to Jonathan Rentzsch for updating and
hosting the groups website ( http://www.cawug.org/ ).
We also wish to thank the folks who run the theater space at the Apple
store for letting us have our meetings there. Since there are no
eating facilities at the store, we will not bring in food. However,
given the store's good location, it should be easy to continue the
discussion at a local eatery or pub like Timothy O'Toole's at 622
Fairbanks (2 blocks east of the store) which worked out very well last
month.

Lastly, if you are working on a project and would like to talk about it
briefly / promote it, I think it would be fun for people to hear about
other people's projects. Please email me off line and you can talk at
a future meeting.
Our next meeting is on May 4th.
