Here at ProjectLocker, we believe in two things when it comes to delivering software: quality and speed. As a provider, we're always looking for ways to help software developers bring the richest, strongest, most reliable software applications to market in unprecedented timeframes. Most of those efforts come through the services and tools that we offer directly, such as our recent rollout of Automated Code Reviews. But we're also always on the lookout for partners, vendors, and other tools that meet that same criteria.

Which is why we're big fans of Servoy. Servoy is a Java-based development environment that allows you to create rich business applications that can be deployed both to multiple desktop platforms as well as over the internet with a single code base. I've witnessed a demo where a Servoy developer created a single form that drew data from both a Sybase database and a MySQL database at the same time without writing a single line of code in minutes. They say a demo team built this sample bug tracking application from scratch in 46 hours.

It's strong and fast, and now that they've converted their latest release, version 4.0, into an Eclipse plugin, their team sharing features are all provided through Subversion.

Given Servoy's new reliance on Subversion, ProjectLocker is very proud to participate in ServoyWorld2008, their international user conference, next week at the JW Marriott Resort in Las Vegas. I'll be giving a presentation there entitled "Best Practices for Hosted Subversion" on Thursday, September 4th, as a general introduction to some of the ways that Subversion in general and hosted Subversion in particular can improve your quality of life as a developer. If you're attending the conference, please feel free to stop by. The slides and a YouTube version of my presentation will become available both here and on Servoy's homepage soon after the conference.
