Current direction

The development of current 1.x releases of BibDesk is taking place in the

trunk/bibdesk

subdirectory of the SVN repository.

If you want to contribute to the currently-shipping version of BibDesk, that's where to look for the source.

The SVN committer list is smaller than the CVS list was. That's probably just because those project members didn't ask for access after the switch to SVN. If that's you and you want to commit again, just ask.
