While we are all introducing ourselves: I am a programmer. I mostly mostly do hard core C for soft realtime systems and have a fair understanding of network code, OpenGL, threading, processor architecture. I have not done anything Amiga specific in quite a while (and sadly lack an A1) but is quite willing to help as time permits (a little low on that sometimes).
Also, about Neon for SVN. Do we really need this initially? I use SVN on my SPARC and the standalone svnserver works well. For security reasons, we should probably look into other protocols (or tunnel svn over ssh) - but for an initial port we could perhaps build a minimal SVN server/client set with limited protocol support.

I'm a developer, besides other languages at work I mostly use C++ under Windows and Linux. Though C isn't that bad ;-).
My knowledge about Amiga API isn't worth much, but I hope to grow that here, as it was grown about gcc and company during last year because of linux programming and working on aros hosted for ppc.
Also sometimes my job doesn't give me much spare time, or I just run away from every computer coming in sight.
So not sure if I can help coding very much, I'm sure there will be other areas were help will be needed: bug hunting, reviews, throwing in ideas, ...

Hello Markus
People with extensive unix experiance are of great value in porting i think, you can explain others what this or that bit does ;)

This makes me think about the organisation of our (future) website.
Perhaps it would be an idea to have "question fora", e.g. one forum for Unix questions where people can ask about Unix related things and people with Unix experience (like me, for the last 10 yrs) can endavour to answer.
We could also have other topics like "AmigaOS4" (I think we might have an expert or two here somewhere :-), "APR" or "X11".
Would this make sense?

That's one of the possibilities, but first things first, i pm'd DaveyD about his offer for hosting, but no reply yet, so i'm waiting on DaveyD to provide me with some space & a subdomain.
I'd prefer to stay under the "amigaworld.net" domain, but i'm open to suggestions incase someone would prefer something else.

Absolutely, that's part of the reason why the mailinglist is so usefull, a forum is nice & all, but sometimes a mailinglist can do simular tasks even easier :)

Don't worry about time restraints, i can relate to that!

Actually, the main focus atm is just a SVN client, the server will not be a priority

Well, that was my thought. Neon is for WebDAV clients (if I remember correctly) and is consequently used by the SVN client. So cutting WebDAV support from the client might be a possibility for an initial version.
(But, as I wrote, this might not desierable in the long term.)

Hi,
Before I forget: I just got the APR source and I'm looking into it... I'll present a list of "areas" later on that have to be implemented (threads, shared memory, file I/O) etc...
