[dna-dev] What michael is up to lately

[Michael Neale]

We were using SVNKit - but for the moment, we are going to sidestep
the SVN sync directly (the code we have works, and people are free to
use it, but we may not).

Instead, we will have a simple remote api for the repository, and have
a little client lib (and ant task) to allow SCM "like" operations on
the Guvnor repository. We have also looked at Eclipse team support,
and its possible to do this in such a way that eclipse knows about it
(so a file can also be in a regular SVN). This means we are not tied
to SVN for this feature.

A richer SVN sync would be nice - but as you mentioned once before,
this is kind of a funciton that DNA/meta matrix could provide as a
data service, in the future.

Does that make sense? bit hard to explain - happy to chat it out if it helps.
