		<title>Subversion Branch/Merge Strategies</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Subversion is many things, but it&#8217;s not all things to all people. The project set out to create a better CVS, and that is largely what Subversion has been so far. As a result of design decisions made early on, and a firm commitment to backwards compatibility, the project &#8211; at least until a 2.0 [...]]]></description>

		<title>So you just became a build manager, now what?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[(continued from here) First and foremost, an organization&#8217;s choice to make build management a priority is a strategic one. So the role has to be filled by someone who can think and operate at that level, as well as get their hands dirty and do the work on a tactical level. It&#8217;s a careful balance [...]]]></description>

		<title>The business case for hiring a build manager</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lately, I&#8217;ve been thinking a lot about the discrepancy between the number of people in my network telling me &#8220;we could really use for you to come in and sort out  this mess of ours&#8221;, and the number of actual build management jobs/contracts that seem to be actually out there. In the past, I&#8217;ve come [...]]]></description>

		<title>Note to developers everywhere: you are not a snowflake, and neither is your project.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Came across this rambling piece of Maven hatred, and it gave me a good chuckle. While the author makes some valid points, his argument is rather clouded by his obvious love affair with Rake and &#8211; to a lesser degree &#8211; Ant. In a few spots, he&#8217;s grossly misinformed, reaching, or just plain wrong. While [...]]]></description>

		<title>Distributed Version Control &#8211; Bridging the Gap to the Enterprise</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been spending a lot of time reading about and playing with distributed version control tools (DSCM) recently, particularly Git and Mercurial, which seem to be the two primary players in this space at the moment. While Git certainly has its followers (Android being a prominent one), Mercurial offers pretty much the same range of [...]]]></description>

		<title>AccessSVN 1.0.0 Released</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For the past few months I&#8217;ve been product-managing a new Subversion management tool called AccessSVN, and today it&#8217;s been officially released. If you support a large number of SVN users, and you need to manage permissions, this is the only tool on the market for you today. I highly recommend you get yourself a 30-day [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Wasserman Principle, Part I</title>
		<description><![CDATA[There is this crazy theory I&#8217;ve been working on, on and off for probably over a year now. I&#8217;m calling it The Wasserman Principle. I got sidetracked for a while, but I&#8217;ve been wanting to finish this. In its present form it&#8217;s a rambling, unfinished document that needs some work. I&#8217;m going to start editing [...]]]></description>

		<title>Subversion DIY write-through-proxy &#8211; Lock/Unlock</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Something I didn&#8217;t cover in my original description was how to handle the distribution of pessimistic locking. This is a bit more of an edge-case than some of the others. You need to make sure you understand your options and their side effects. There is no clean way to replicate the lock. There are two [...]]]></description>
