I had a talk with Marvin recently and we discussed the possibility to provide free svn-hosting for xith-projects to get more insight into what people are doing with it.

Here is the idea:

- You get free SVN hosting for your hobby/commercial/closedsource/opensource/whatever xith related projects with no further obligations than...
- We (the xith core developers) get read acces and build support from you, so we can try out your work with recent xith changes

Benefit for you: free hosting, better support
Benefit for us: overview of how the api is used and where real-world problems might occur

If we would find something in your code that might be a candidate for inclusion into xith, we would kindly ask to do so, but you are free to decide - it's your code!

Would anybody be interested in such a service?

Yes, but let me clean up my code first 

Sounds great!

[Mathias 'cylab' Henze]

Yes, but let me clean up my code first 

Hehe. But there's no need to. You won't need to open the source to the public, and trust me, I have seen really bad code in my life. I once had a co-worker that named all variables x1 to x1337 and in a bad mood she named her variables "frust_und_leid[1-n]", which means "exasperation and agony" . Greatest piece of code was:

Code:

switch(x)
{
   case 1: return 2;
   case 2: return 3;
   case 3: return 4;
   case 4: return 5;
   case 5: return 6;
   case 6: return 7;
   case 7: return 8;
   case 8: return 9;
   case 9: return 10;
   case 10: return 11;
   case 11: return 12;
   case 12: return 1;
}

It had something to do with date calculation...

Anything to update in this area? I may want to put my game here.
