Conference Highlights:

 Subversion 1.7 and the Way Forward – During this keynote session Hyrum Wright, Subversion’s release manager since 2008 and WANdisco’s Director of Open Source, will discuss the release of Subversion 1.7 and the significant enhancements it will provide, including HTTPv2, which promises to boost performance while preserving the benefits of web access to Subversion. Mr. Wright will also discuss the roadmap for the Subversion project beyond 1.7.  Working Copy Enhancements – During this session, major enhancements to Subversion’s working copy library, including centralized metadata storage and improved extensibility will be covered.

Obliterate will include comprehensive audit and recovery capabilities to guarantee that history is always available.  Roundtable with the Committers – Attendees will have the opportunity to discuss the enhancements that they would like to see in future releases of Subversion and exchange ideas with other Subversion users and administrators.  Expert-led best practices workshops for Subversion developers and administrators.

Due to the success of its Subversion support services offerings, WANdisco has been able to hire senior Subversion committers such as Hyrum Wright, Julian Foad, Phillip Martin, Stefan Kung, Erik Huelsmann and others who have come on board recently.



Enterprise-Class Subversion Support Services

WANdisco’s Subversion support services are backed by a dedicated team of core Subversion development, QA and support professionals based at the company’s offices in the US and the UK. As a result, all of WANdisco’s Subversion support customers have access to secure, high quality live support and immediate fixes on a 24-by-7 basis regardless of where they’re located.
