December 2009
I was thinking about changing the looks of stylesen.org for a long time (nearly 2 years), but today was the auspicious day I was able to accomplish the mission! Yes at last I ve done it and I hope you are already looking at it ;) Back in 2004 I started blogging with Blogspot.com, then switched to Wordpress.com In september 2006, I rolled out stylesen.org when I had my first self hosting website. I chose drupal to host this site, which today I feel is a wise decision made by me!
This was my second article for Linux For You which got published in the May 2009 issue. I am happy that I wrote this article because, the security improvements include the GNOME Keyring support introduced to Subversion whose code am closely associated with. This is also a continuation to the article published in April 2009 issue.
A gist from the article is follows, you can download the entire article from the attachment to this post,

Last month, while discussing some of the new and significant features available in Subversion 1.6, we covered a little bit about the security features. This month we’ll concentrate exclusively on security improvements.
