This is absolutely fantastic! Exactly what I wanted at the right time. I don't have much bandwidth to work on the UI & design side of XP-Dev.com as I'm focusing more on functionality and other products, and in bad need of a web designer

To be fair to the subversion guys, its pretty darn easy to setup real-time backups. Use svnsync and hook it up in some post-commit hook. Having said that, to have git completely backed up, it's not as simple as a clone. You will need to mir

Here's the thing that I've read about - really good entrepreneurs start at a really young age. Its like they've got it flowing in their veins and embedded into their thinking as kids. Another example worth reading up on is Sir Richard Brans
