OK, the Subversion repository just got a shuffle. There will now be two 
branches: "trunk", "bleeding" and "alpha". "trunk" is where Chris and I play. 
Unless you're really, *really* brave and for some reason *want* segfaults, 
half-completed features and hacked debug playgrounds, users probably want to 
steer clear of the trunk.

"bleeding" is just what it sounds like - it's where we'll be dumping 
newly-completed features. Although it's likely to be quite unstable, you 
won't get that nasstiness. The criterion for moving a feature into bleeding 
is basically "if everything works as planned, the feature should be complete 
and usable".

"alpha" is where your ordinary repository-following power user will want to 
sit. It contains release candidates for the next alpha tarball, and should be 
relatively bugfree.

When we get there, there will also be a "beta" branch, and such like.


To check out a particular branch, you could do:

svn checkout http://subv.everybuddy.com:888/svn/bleeding eb-lite

This example will check out the bleeding tree into a directory called 
"eb-lite" - tweak the branch name and landing directory as you want.
