I was lucky enough to have the opportunity to conduct a presentation on CVS at the Melbourne Dot net user group.
This experience has given me alot of valuable experience, I have decided to keep jumping in head first a get involved in more of this community activity.
If I had the opportunity to another presentation on CVS, I would start with a clean system and demonstrate how easy it is to setup a CVS server, Client, and then add a repository.
The other thing I found was that my knowledge of CVS was increased from audience questions and comments.
My first post to this great blog framework (thanks Scott for all the effort behind this) is really to get that instant gratification of getting something working.
