Hi all,

So here's my status, about 3 months ago I started working full time as an
open source developer on Play Framework.  Previously open source
development was a hobby, something where I could come home and enjoy doing
as something different from the daily grind.  Now it's the last thing I
want to do when I come home :)

So this is what I've done.  I've migrated the Pebble SVN repository to
GitHub.  What this means is that it's now incredibly easy for people to
create pull requests, and for me (and whoever else) to review them/comment
on them/accept them.  It's a much lighter weight workflow than having to
download and apply patches as currently has to be done with SVN, and
encourages more community collaboration.  It also provides a clear way to
accept a new committer/maintainer, once someone has contributed a few good
pull requests, I'm happy to bring them on board as the new maintainer.

The new GitHub repository is https://github.com/pebbleblog/pebble.  I'm
currently pushing the source code there, and will update the website once
that's done.

pieroxy, would you be able to form your changes into a pull request?

Cheers,

James
