[vos-d] version control

Ok, I have to admit that after sitting down and reading more about it, 
Bazarr-ng looks pretty cool.  I also read about Monotone a bit, but I 
found it rather confusing.  Tomorrow I'm going to try out Bazaar-ng and 
determine if it's ready for prime time.  Being able to make commits to 
local branches without needing network connectivity is a very attractive 
feature.


My biggest concern is that we generally tell people to pull down the 
latest version of code from CVS for testing, and that going to a less 
familiar system (bzr) is going to require that people learn a strange new 
version control client at the same time as learning the VOS codebase. 
Basic operations in subversion are conceptually very simple and there is 
tons of documentation for it, whereas with bzr... not so much.


So I may well go ahead with the original plan and migrate to subversion. 
Since Reed and I do 99% of VOS development, we're the ones who ultimately 
are going to be dealing with it most of the time.  Other users are just 
going to be doing simple checkouts and updates.

[vos-d] milestone

Just wanted to mention, I reached a milestone tonight.  Although I haven't 
gotten ter'angreal compiled, I do now have a working version of vostest 
(the sample vos app in CS) that was built with Visual Studio 8.  This 
means we're in very good shape supporting this compiler and build system.


I've also got vostest working built with MingW.  I should have Ter'Angreal 
built quite soon.


So we are in very good shape for Windows support in the next version. 
The remaining task is going to be updating the build documentation so that 
hopefully others can follow what I've done.


This means we're feature complete for 0.23.0.  Perhaps there will be a 
Christmas release of VOS?  :-)


Reed, anything you can think of that would hold back a new release, or do 
you think we're good to go?  A few weeks of testing and documentation and 
then go?
