it is nice to see the svn co http://.../subversion/subversion still works, and there is a 4.2 branch with some work on web services and a delphi project offshoot. One query , about the way the packages are organized , the Shared directory contains shared class files but with the same package name in the various applications for argus. It's more common to organize into one single package directory, and have a shared package, and a server package, and a client package, etc. e.g. something like org.argusconnect.argus.client, org.argusconnect.argus.shared, org.argusconnect.argus.server , if you look at other open source java projects on the net. This prevents the problem with naming conflict when server and client have similiarly named class files in whatever xxxxDomain package. eclipse can refactor this , but it takes a few goes to get it right.
