Hi Jeremy,

thanks for working this through with TAPR.

I should have a major update to put up there soon ;-)

This can allow you to download single files from the repository without having a local SVN client installed.  If you system can decompress .tar.gz files, you can also download entire directories.

This is an announce-only list that the system will automatically send an e-mail whenever one of the software developers makes a commit to the repository.  This makes it easier for you to track changes that are happening because you'll be alerted via e-mail.  You can subscribe to the list at:

He also was instrumental in getting providing the data to me quickly and easily so it could be migrated to its new home.  The project owes a debt of gratitude to Dale for the service he has provided over the years.

Also if you have comments or ideas on how to make things better, I'm always here to at least listen.  Thanks everyone for your patience in this process.  I know it's been down for a long time, and those involved in the migration appreciate the lack of a general uproar over the issue while we worked on fixing it.
