This should be good. At the up-coming UNIX users group meeting, local snowboarder and author Mike Mason will be talking about the excellent Subversion version control system.

Mike Mason will talk about Subversion and its development model, and how thanks to Apache's Portable Runtime it's available on every system that can run Apache web server. UNIX® is the platform of choice for "serious" deployments, and Mike will be demoing on MacOS X to show you something a little different. Recent surveys showed around 50% of teams don't use version control at all to manage their assets--Subversion is useful for storing code and, as we'll see, managing other funky stuff like system configuration and website deployments. Mike is a developer, coach and Agile/XP evangelist with ThoughtWorks, now based in Calgary. His recent book, Pragmatic Version Control using Subversion, (http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/titles/svn/index.html) was well received by the community earlier this year. Mike has been using version control since an accidental rm -rf * toasted his homework one night, and Unix since the early Slackware Linux days. Please note the change in location.
