Banancanard - is that SVN site capable of allowing restricted "change"/"update" permissions to users...

If so (or if not can you find one for..) with the mods db coming up, and a themes site on the horizon, there should be a "themes" pack and a "plugins" pack (yes, in the future), held in SVN, where the devs hav full access, and the owner has full acess to his plugin/theme/panel/menu or admin Menu/center/Plugin

it would be easy to update them for the main eoCMS versions, and allows easy packaging

atm, this is with the view to the future, but I would stick XaphireClean into it (with the 128x128 images, its 512Kb, and I dont know if I am allowed to supply the icons yet, must check liscencing)

the plugin pack would be a really good idea, and dev's having acces to its SVN could upgrade them according to layout and plugin version changes..

AND.. 
it would be a good place to throw things like the media player, the Alpha Blue, Maelstrom Dark, Whirlpool

if it could be setup to replicate the eoCMS structure, with the lower level being SVN repositories in there own right, the the following is possible (and easily updated):


in the meantime, it would stop previous done themes, plugins etc from becoming unusable, especially those not created by eoCMS devs..

If someone was feeling ambitious, an internal SVN held within the mods/themes sites would be extremely cool.

With the way things are looking. I am thinking about purchasing a vps.  This would give us a lot more control over everything and we can set up the svn to do whatever we would like.  I will look into it more after my next paycheck as I would be purchasing a year at a time and I dont have that kind of money laying around (as my car decided it wanted a $100 for a new rim)
There are not many svn's that give you near complete control for free, and it is almost as cheap for me to go with our own hosted subversion server.

cool, if you can set up your own server, then I have a suggestion to a "cheap" server, in the same building as 110mb.com dutch servers.. 22 euros a month from memory

full svn would allow (theoretically) for some serious "packaging" of eoCMS and parts.. just as long as "core" can be seperated from "addon" otherwise they need their own tree (some testing would be needed, but there will be a way)

I am yet to offer the nightly svn, but hopefully this week some time I'll do the first, and that needs a script to trash .svn folders, so I'll do one for bash and one fo wincmd

duh, "branch"

We can do branches and the like right now (as far as I know).  But if I find a decent priced svn we will have the ability to do a lot of things on top of just the svn.
We can host our own nightly's as well as do easier packaging.  The downloads will be coming from that hosting account so we would not have to worry about bandwidth. 

My next step possibly this weekend, depending on how much free time I get at the IGVC competition, will be to price out some svn's.  I am hoping to find something cheap as well as reliable as I am not going for broke to do this as I am hoping to pay for a full year at once.

@paulwratt At 22 euros that would come out to $373.16 usd for a full year and that is to much for me to dish out for this project on top of our current hosting.  I have found one that looks good for 130 for the year.  I just have a lot more research to do.

sweet, keep us posted on how it goes.. its not critical right at the moment, but there are a couple of things that could use it.. but they can also be done without svn in the meantime..
