Migration to Mercurial
======================
OpenOffice.org developers,
here - as promised - some information about the migration of the DEV300
code line to Mercurial.
The next milestone DEV300 m63 will be the last milestone published via
SVN. Newer milestone will only be available from the Mercurial
repository (http://hg.services.openoffice.org/DEV300).
The SVN server will still be available for some time to come. Please
continue your work on your existing SVN hosted child workspaces as
usual. You don't need to migrate your CWS immediately. You are only
required to migrate your CWS if you need to update it to DEV300 m64 or
later. Please see the migration guide for details.
From now on, new child workspaces should be Mercurial hosted. You will
still be able to create a new DEV300 m63 based SVN hosted child
workspace, but this just means unnecessary migration work later.
Please don't hesitate to contact me per email or IRC if you have
questions. My IRC nick is 'blauwal'.

also embarrassing spelling and grammar mistakes, please feel free to
correct them. It's a Wiki after all.
