Hello Orlando Java Enthusiasts,

Just a quick reminder the Orlando Java Users Group is meeting this Thursday night, August 26 at DeVry University. Mark your calendars and spread the word! Our meetings are open to anyone interested in Java.

Refreshments will be provided by Robert Half Technology (www.rht.com) Please rsvp by email to rsvp@orlandojug.org if you plan on attending. Here are the details.

Presentation: "Introducing Subversion", http://subversion.tigris.org

Subversion (or SVN) is the next-generation version control system designed to replace CVS. While SVN was designed to be easy for those familiar with CVS to use, it's far more than "CVS 2.0". This presentation will show some of SVN's more compelling features, as well as share the speaker's experiences in migrating thousands of files, gigs of data, and an entire development department from CVS to SVN.

Basic knowledge of source-code control systems will be assumed, particularly CVS. However, none of that will be required to learn a great deal about how to use SVN to help in your development efforts.

Speaker: Jim Moore, VERITAS Software

Jim is a senior developer for internal tools at VERITAS Software, one of the largest suppliers of enterprise IT software in the world. His team's need to for a very powerful system that encourages rapid development of software among people around the world, takes very little maintenance, supports many environments, and easily integrates with other tools & systems led him to Subversion. An enterprise developer and committer on various open-source projects (such as log4j and Spring-Rich), he has a great deal of experience with the value of revision control and collaborative development.
