SubEthaEdit 2.0
SubEthaEdit 2.0 is now out. It looks like there have been some improvements, as wel as a change in terms - there is now a commercial license, but most of the uses that I was using SubEthaEdit for were personal, plus my Mac belongs to a charity, so I'm covered.

One of the bigger changes is that the networking protocol has been improved -- it's based on BEEP and is supposed to be more efficient and extensible for the future. This sounds great but it means a few problems. The biggest one is that version 2.0 cannot talk to version 1.0. For notetaking at conferences, this is going to make things interesting. Will we now have a v2 document and a v1 document? I guess I'll have to keep copies of both versions around now. The port numbers have changed, so now I have to change the rules that punch holes in the firewall too.

Most of that is just inconvenience. The biggest problem is that a Linux or Windows version is nowhere in sight. Maybe some enterprising souls will take a protocol analyzer to the BEEP stream, and write a Linux/Windows version. Or maybe someone will write a Java or wxPython version. Someone? Anyone?

Maybe someone could take NetPad and extend it.

Ted,

Well I posted a short email about the basics of the advantages to the monotone list-

http://mail.gnu.org/archive/html/monotone-devel/2004-05/msg00081.html

I picked a simple example that I find is evocative of -my- larger arch problems. I have to admit that after following the discussions on arch and using it myself on and off for months I was never comfortable with arch.

Monotone has a clear simple structure with few commands without redundant versions (arches I found to be riddled with morphing subtleties that affect which to choose).

Whether cause or effect, Graydon is a good writer(website, manual and email) and that is reflected in the usability of his code.

I looked at codeville very briefly but the lack of a mailing list/user community was the kiss of death for me.

Regardless of choice it is really great to see all the work being to take the step after cvs.
