Hi,

This is a rare cross-posting to both dabo-users and dabo-dev. Depending on how 
you
stay up to date with Dabo (you do stay up to date don't you?) this may or may 
not
have much bearing on your life but here's the important bit:

Dabo 0.9.5 will be released soon. It will be the *first* version hosted on 
GitHub,
and the *last* version hosted on my Subversion repository at svn.dabodev.com.

If you stay up to date using web update, you don't need to do anything. 
Everything
should "just work". Unless it doesn't, then please let us (well, Ed) know by 
sending
a message to dabo-users.

However, I'd like to encourage everyone to get an account at GitHub. It's easy, 
it's
free, and they are really nice people. If their excellent tutorials don't get 
you
started on Git then feel free to discuss Git and GitHub related stuff here on
dabo-users and we'll try to help you out.

After 0.9.5, we'll keep the Subversion repository up and running in read-only 
mode
for a time, but it isn't going to track the Git repository: it'll stay at 0.9.5
forever (well, for a month or so after the next Dabo version is released)[1]. 
So if
you rely on Subversion to keep your Dabo updated, or if you are a developer that
wants to keep sending us commits, you'll need to figure out this Git thing if 
you
haven't already.

We'll change the links on the dabodev download page when we are ready, but I 
think
the GitHub url for Dabo will be https://github.com/dabodev/dabo, but don't 
quote me
on that.

Ed and I are excited about Dabo's future on GitHub. We hope that it encourages 
more
eyes to look at and improve our code.

Oh, and Happy New Year!
