[Therion] Hopefully a bunch of new users; Optimum Data Managment

[Bruce Mutton]

Hi Jonny

You've lost me. I'm familiar with subversion, and I use it from time to time
for the greater good. Don't know what cvs is, and that leads me to suspect
we're talking about a different type of subversion.  Perhaps it is some form
of web based storage and data management?

 

My friend Mike and I are working on some drawings collaboratively, and we
synchronize our data manually.  Essentially we agree who, at any one time
has the 'master' version of a particular set of files.  It works reasonably
well, and would theoretically work for multiple users, admittedly with a
high margin of error.

Bruce,

I don't know how I missed this message when you posted it initially. I just
stumbled onto it searching through the archives for an example of something
else. I too have been hoping to use Therion collaboratively, but I haven't
been able to convince anyone else I survey with to learn Therion, so I've
made little headway. 

I was thinking of using cvs or subversion to maintain collaboratively
generated data. This would cut down a fair bit on the hassle of manually
keeping your workspace up to date. Of course, there is the additional hassle
of using cvs (or subversion), but it shouldn't be too bad.

Again, I haven't actually done this, but I haven't thought of any major
obstacles either.
