To blog or not to blog
I have never been kind of person who writes diaries. It has always felt too hard to keep steadly writing sometime what nobody would ever read besides me. Maybe blogging will be different. Could you prove me wrong?
I just installed WordPress (obviously) and got it’s basic configuration done. I’m not too happy with the default looks of it, but it’ll do till I have time to make my own theme for it. That’ll be sometime around when this blog becomes a success 
To go directly into business about work for Synapse Audio I could start telling that I’m setting up Subversion repository for me and Richard to share installer files. It’s quite a big bunch of binary files and takes it’s own good share of time to upload the initial import. Not really a SVN’s primary usage, but works rather well when separated to it’s own repository out of source code. Better than manual uploading and sharing the files between two persons.
SVN is invaluable tool for our work. It would be nearly impossible to do paraller development over distance and SVN allows creating of quick patch releases for customers without the need of waiting next release. Well that patch part is still something to be done even though I recently created test patch of Orion Platinum 7.01 fixing the annoying Rewire issue in 7.00 (if you really can’t wait for 7.1 I can provide the patch for you). This all while source code is already at stage of beta testing of 7.1 release.
I don’t expect this to be anything new for hardcore version control users, but if you’re not using version control yet, I really recommend it even for personal projects. SVN is very easy to take into use and under Windows you can always use TortoiseSVN as your SVN client.
The Orion Platinum 7.1 (and possibly soon after Pro 7.1) release aren’t too far away and following my blog will keep you posted..
