                   Subversion: Building a Better CVS

                         Brian W. Fitzpatrick

                Tuesday, April 25th, 2006, 7:00-9:00pm
 Illinois Institute of Technology, Rice Campus, Wheaton, IL, Room 103

Abstract
--------
CVS's development model is the backbone of the open source movement;
Subversion has taken that model and redesigned the technology behind it to
provide us with an immensely more powerful tool for writing software.  In
this session, we'll cover the history of CVS and Subversion, Subversion's
similarities (and differences) with CVS, migrating from CVS to Subversion,
and, lastly, the future direction of Subversion.
