Since Russell Adams is not on assignment at the moment, he can deliver us the following presentation:
VERSION CONTROL SYSTEMS!
NEXT MEETING!
ON THE THIRTEENTH!!!
He'll give a short history of version control programs so that the lesser-initiated will be aware of the problems that such schemes address. Then he'll give an in-depth description of his preferred program (one of the distributed-model ones as opposed to the central-server-model ones, not that I'm slamming the latter category).
The Linux Journal tribute and article/idea ripoff program will move one meeting into the future.
