About SVN repository

The product was originally written by Josef for his university site. David found this software when he was looking for the framework for the iTET2007 conference site. David had to modify some things in the code so he started to work on his own SVN branch.
  • trunk - contains original Josef's version. We plan to form a branch for this and keep trunk as general and stable as possible
  • branches/itet2007 - contains David's version for iTET2007 conference
  • branches/poskole - contains David's version for Poškole.org conference
Check out sourceforge.net repository at the moment. We plan to move to Collective soon.
