Hi Jon, Sorry about that, been a busy couple of weeks and I dropped off the map heh.
Understandable with your point #1, even though this could be easily fixed with some links. Codeplex actually works with pretty much all major source control providers, including subversion (you can see the configuration settings for SVN here: http://dblinq.codeplex.com/SourceControl/ListDownloadableCommits.aspx). One of these days I'd still like to get my changes up on the google code repository, but I've been busy and it's probably going to be a lot of work now as my tree is a couple months outdated. Another downside of google code heh - the only way I can have you add me is to publicly display my email on here. You can use admin (that magical at sign) yuniti dot com.
