Major Open Source Investment Continues
The year is winding down, but WANdisco’s Subversion investment is hurtling toward 2011. Most recently, new certified Subversion 1.6.15 binaries have been made available for free download, providing a complete, fully tested version of Subversion. Users are advised to upgrade now to take advantage of the enhanced functionality and improved stability of 1.6.15. The 1.6.15 binaries include several key enhancements as well as bug fixes - one major benefit being a fix for server-side crashes when using SVNParentPath and a memory leak invoked by running ‘svn blame –g'. This latest release continues WANdisco’s ongoing investment in the Subversion open source project, which will be developed further in the coming year.

MultiSite 4.0 Brings Significant Enhancements

• SSL support to encrypt all network traffic between development sites
• High volume parallel transaction processing on large servers hosting multiple Subversion repositories
• A silent installer that automates deployment across multiple development sites for faster implementation
• Complete LDAP integration for distributed implementations.

“The features included in this major new release were driven by the requirements of our largest enterprise customers, many of which have tens of thousands of users, thousands of repositories, and process millions of Subversion transactions each day," said David Richards, CEO and President of WANdisco.
