The development is not going in the github repo currently.That's a mistake we will be correcting in a week or two with a new release(no more bulk commits). And yeah , the code can use some serious love.Patches welcome !

Glad to hear that the project is moving to Github. Hopefully you'll see a lot of commits from the OSS community.

So the team from Foradian will also be committing to the same github repo or will there be a parallel subversion repo within Foradian?

That would be a challenge, wouldn't it? Without tests, a lot of people would hesitate to contribute, and with a small group of developers it would take some time to add tests to a somewhat large project like this.

Any plans from Foradian on this front?
