Can someone help me here please.
My local
svn
doesn't seem to want to grok this.
Doing a
svn up
at my "..../twiki/branches/" just returns
svn: '.' is not a working copy

I only noticed TWiki 4.0.1 because I happened to stop by the site today. I am on
twiki-announce@listsPLEASENOSPAM.sourceforge.net, but didn't see an announcement there. Are all releases announced on that list, or only very major ones?
--
BretMartin - 13 Feb 2006
We did not announce 4.0.1 on that list because:
- it is a minor release
- it happended quickly after 4.0.0
- the installation guide and upgrade guide mention to check the KnownIssuesOfTWiki04x00x00 where 4.0.1 is mentioned
--
PeterThoeny - 13 Feb 2006
Twiki on debian - the older release has recently moved from testing to unstable - what is the timeframe for deployment of a deb release via aptitude? Thanks
--
BrentEgeland - 22 Feb 2006
Shouldn't there be a
TWikiSystemRequirements section (and/or link)?
--
WillNorris - 27 Feb 2006
Done.
