lots of updates to dev.processing.org, which is now as complete as it's gonna get, meaning that it's now useful but will continue to change along with the project.

- we've moved to subversion instead of cvs. scary but hopefully a better direction for us in the future. the cvs server is now shut off and the build instructions on the site have been updated.

- the move to subversion has broken viewcvs, which now shows nothing. haven't had time to track down what's going wrong with this.

- fjen has done a lot of design work, tweaking out the javadoc so that the color scheme fits the rest of the site (praise fjen for getting rid of the bright blue monstrosity that is the default javadoc coloring).

- also from fjen, some updates to simplify and fix the design of the bugs database as well. it's really getting useful now.

- lots of other system administration stuff to get us closer to mobile.processing.org up and running, as well as making translations happening in a simpler way.

work on the code:

- lots of work to iron out how vector stuff is exported from 3D.

- textMode(SHAPE) has been added as an option in OpenGL (but not yet released). this will use the outlines of the actual font to render instead of a texture. this means fonts can be of any size. right now it's completely un-optimized but presents an exciting opportunity as it paves the way for exporting high res vector images from 3D that include text!

- more bug tracking and logging, trying to get the whole todo list into the bugs db.

additional contributions:

- dave mellis has patched up the issues with println(), hopefuly avoiding the full lockup of the environment when a lot of println() statements are used.
http://dev.processing.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=19

- two new filters from toxi.. filter(DILATE) and filter(ERODE) which will arrive in rev 93.

...plus lots of other tidbits that i'm forgetting...

You switch to svn and are confused why viewcvs doesn't work :\

Thank you! As one who frequently locks up Processing with gobs of data, this will definitely help.
