WANdisco, a provider of Enterprise Subversion, has said that it has acquired SVNForum.org, a Subversion user community with over 20,000 active members.

According to the company, the Subversion community site now has a new look, features and also has got new lease of life for users.

After the acquisition of SVNForum.org, WANdisco claims that it has made the site more secure, added better spam protection and improved search engine optimisation, and the users of the site will notice the difference immediately.

WANdisco president and CEO David Richards said given their commitment to the Subversion project, they felt it was critical that they stepped up and made whatever changes were necessary to ensure SVNForum’s long-term success.

"Following our recent announcements about the future development of the Subversion open source project, our acquisition and enhancement of SVNForum.org is another clear demonstration of our long-term commitment to the Subversion community," Richards said.
