Ajax

The latest version of Ra-Ajax, 2.0.3, was released last night. This release has a couple of important bug fixes and a new Effect called EffectCssClass. This new effect was contributed by Karel Boek. EffectCssClass simply allows you to change the CSS class of a widget easily when doing chained and/or joined effects, like this: new EffectFadeIn(panel1, 500).ChainThese( new EffectHighlight(panel1, 700), new EffectCssClass(panel1, "className"), new EffectRollUp(panel1, 1000)) .Render(); Ra-Ajax version...

We have been working hard on version 2.0.0 of Ra-Ajax and it is now publicly available for download. This release marks very exciting events and changes.

If you don't care about retaining all the history of one of the repositories, you can just create a new directory under one project's repository, then import the other. If you care about retaining the history of both, then you can use 'svnadmin dump' to dump one repository, and 'svnadmin load' to load it into the other repository.
