I'm in the process of trying this out now.  Seems to be taking an age doing the 
"SVN Checkout..."  How long should it take?  I could have downloaded 50 copies 
of the nightly release in the time it's currently taken.

I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong.

Is it necessary to actually checkout the code - does the server keep track that 
I have a checked out everything?  I'm not likely to be making any code 
changes/patches in the immediate future; I just want to use SVN to get a copy 
of the latest and update.

Your instructions said to create folder "C:\Program Files\Slimserver".  Well, I 
created a subfolder "trunk" within my Slimserver installation folder, thus 
"P:\Music\Slimserver\trunk", and selected "SVN Checkout..." on that trunk 
folder.

How easy is it to switch between my currently installed nightly release and the 
latest trunk?  I can have both set up as a service, but obviously only run one 
at a time.  However, they will use different slimserversql.db, plugin folders, 
etc.  I'll have to install AlienBBC and all the support bits again under the 
trunk folder?
