Subversion structure change

Development

The subversion repository at Google Code is no longer going to contain a “trunk” which is always stable - instead, it will contain whatever I ended up with after I finished working. When I feel happy enough with it to push it out to ajaxlife.net I’ll tag it in svn. The last version I had up there is currently tagged 0.0.1, and is identical to revision 34 of the trunk.

The net effect of this is far more frequent updates to the code, and less of me having to spend hours undoing stuff I did due to not having a copy of it.

Basically, if you want working code, look for the largest number in http://ajaxlife.googlecode.com/svn/tags/. If you want recent code, look in http://ajaxlife.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/. I’ll be dropping my own server code into the trunk shortly. The client code is so hideously broken it gets to be an exception until I have it fixed (which shouldn’t be that hard, really - it needs to be ported back to an old UI library, and it’ll all magically start working again).

I hope this makes people who want more recent code happy. Also, contributions would be welcomed, although this will involve digging through my mess of C#/JavaScript.

[EDIT] I’ve committed the server changed - see here for a list of changes.

    Typically the way it should be done :)
    Trunk should contain the latest code, regardless of whether it works, while version branches should contain the working versions :)
    Keep up the good work ^_^
