Starting the development of the new Tech Head Brothers in a remote multi developers environment I wanted to have some tooling to ease our work. For sure we have:

1. A code repository: Subversion installed using VisualSVN server Continue reading

By starting to write a post about the new step achieved in the tooling of Tech Head Brothers development I just realized that VisualSVN Server 1.1 is released.

So I downloaded and updated my installation in 2-3 minutes, all went well, just nice.

The aim is to be able to associate a bug/feature described into JIRA to source code changes made into the Subversion repository.

First of all you need to install the JIRA Subversion Plugin on you JIRA server.

When I started to work on the new version of Tech Head Brothers I decided to use the new version of the unit testing framework from Microsoft. Before making this decision I read that it was much better and faster in several places. As I also wanted to get code coverage I thought it was a good idea.

I also had to setup a version control system and decided to use subversion with the facility of the free VisualSVN Server. Very simple way to setup in less than 10 min (including download time) a subversion repository on a Windows server. I highly recommend it ! I am also now, for some months, using VisualSVN that provides a seamless integration between subversion and Visual Studio 2005 and 2008. VisualSVN Limited offered a license of VisualSVN to me and my brother. Thanks a lot, really appreciated! And now at innoveo solutions, my company, we are also using it.

I have nothing to say! You should watch this demo from Michael Schwarz, it is really impressive.

Today I updated my Surface Demo (original source from Silverlight examples). Well, there are only some small changes since last beta 1.1. So I have added a DeepZoom control (MultiScaleImage) to the demo:

It shows a way to create photo sets using DeepZoom and Silverlight 2.

You might sign-up and start to use it on http://photozoom.mslivelabs.com.

My friend David Catuhe (his French blog) just released a demo of what he calls a little 3D engine in Silverlight 2.

I finally got time to go on with the new Tech Head Brothers publishing tool!

This time I wanted to go on with source code and I reached a quite good status.

Nice to see that my company, innoveo solutions, became a HP Partner!
