SourceForge now has support for Subversion!!!

As per my previous posts, I was looking for a place to host a Subversion project.  Now SourceForge has support for both CVS and Subversion!!   I created a new SourceForge project and it gave me the option of having SVN turned on.  Very cool! 

Stay tuned (maybe a week or so…) for more details about a new open source .net project…

 

[OT] Netflix ripping off customers

I have had a Netflix subscription for quite a while and I noticed that they started taking up to two weeks between dvds.  I contacted them and they did not respond.  No apologies. No credits. No extra dvd.  Nothing.

Then I saw this article on CNN about how Netflix is “throttling” high renters.  If they are going to limit the number of dvds per month, they should’t advertise “unlimited” dvds.

Well, I am cancelling my Netflix account as of today and going to Blockbuster Online.  Blockbuster doesn’t have quite the selection of kids movies as Netflix, but I can also get 4 in store coupons per month to use.

Bye-Bye Netflix.
