Subversion [http://subversion.tigris.org/ svn] is used for revision control of [https://palm.muk.uni-hannover.de/trac/browser PALM], consequently, the development of the PALM-4U features will also be controlled via '''svn''', centralized on one remote server (trac).

As drafted in Fig. 1, each PALM-4U feature shall be developed in its own '''svn branch''', equipped with write permissions for each of this feature's developers.
Subsequently listed svn branches have been created so far, and they are available under [https://palm.muk.uni-hannover.de/trac/browser/palm/branches /palm/branches], only visible for developers with respective permissions:

Additionally, following developers have write permissions for all MOSAIK-related branches: ''Kanani, Ketelsen, Maronga, Raasch''.

Please notify [mailto:kanani@muk.uni-hannover.de Farah Kanani-Sühring] if permission needs to be granted for additional developers.

Only tested feature parts should enter in the respective '''feature branch'''. If possible, revision control of local PALM-4U development is preferably done via [[git]].\\\\
