Webinar Replay: Subversion in 2010 and Beyond

Highlights include:

• HTTPv2.0
  This update of the current WebDAV HTTP protocol will boost performance while preserving the benefits of providing web access to Subversion.
• SVNJ
  A rich server-side JAVA API that leverages Subversion's established code base. SVNJ will enable the Subversion community to reach out to millions of JAVA developers to create the same rich functionality and extensibility on the server that's available on the client.
• Obliterate
  A new feature that cleanly removes obsolete files and other data from Subversion repositories. Obliterate will include comprehensive audit and recovery capabilities to guarantee that history is always available.
• Working Copy
  New features include centralized metadata storage and improved extensibility. These enhancements will lay the groundwork for offline commits and other capabilities normally associated with distributed version control systems.
