After using CVS for so many years (at first, self-hosted, and then
graciously hosted by Mushpark by nails), the switch to Subversion has
begun. I've wanted to do this for awhile, but Subversion servers are a
tad different than CVS servers.

TinyMUX23, TinyMUX24, helpfiles, and testcases remain under CVS. These
will gradually be archived as they become obsolete. TinyMUX 2.3 will
be archived at the end of this year after at least one more release.
TinyMUX 2.4 will be archived at the end of next year (assuming TinyMUX
2.6 enters Beta at the end of this year).
TinyMUX26 has moved to Subversion. TinyMUX 2.6.0.6 will be the first
release made with Subversion in the mix, and you can expect the patch
to touch all the source files as all the file version numbers change.
The testcases project will be added to Subversion sometime soon.
The helpfiles project is going to be retired at the same time
TinyMUX24 is. The structure of it was originally created by someone
not totally familiar with (and not totally trusting of) version
control software. I have kept the structure with a tweak to support
multiple 2.x versions. When a topic was re-written, the earlier
versions automatically picked up the changes. However, now, the most
common type of change is an addition of a feature or behavior not
present in previous versions, and this results in more work than it
saves. It makes sense to discard the entire structure and work
directly on the help.txt and wizhelp.txt files, so we will.
The patchfiles and tarball should continue uninterupted, and the
structure of the files within them hasn't changed.
