I'm sorry I didn't get this done any earlier, I ended up with a bunch of other 
things eating up my time. 

I had some trouble with the following:
1.  I'm not sure if I'm using the right terms when referring to some stuff in 
Subversion.  I referred to the main page of a project as the "home page" and 
the bar containing the "Project Home", "Wikis", "Issues" and "Source" tabs as a 
task bar.
2.  Several of the images I included are centered.  Some of them are not "full 
size", but they fill the entire center of the content area.  Are they ok?  I'm 
not sure how else to have them other than as large centered images.

Thank you!

Hi there Rosemary,  I think the way you used the images as full and center was 
probably the best for this article as the images are large enough to really 
follow with out having to click on them to make them larger.  One thing I did 
notice was your various sections of the article,  If I am correct and I may not 
(please all editors jump in if I am incorrect here) I believe we are supposed 
to stick to using h2 (no h1), then down to h3 or h4, and then down as priority 
goes down.  Like for example main topics might be h2 and smaller sub topics 
under it might be h3's or go down in progression of h3, h4, h5, etc.  Then it 
may pick back up for the next main topic at h2 again and follow the same format 
for subtopics.  

I will pass this along for the others to also edit.

Thanks!  It was a very good article I was able to follow along and understand 
it.

Thank you for the feedback!  I had forgotten that headings don't have to start 
at h1.  I have changed it to h2s and h4s.  Here's a link to the changes:

Hey there, I believe all your headings should be the same heading because the 
sizes of the titles change so wither make them all h2's or h4's. Other then 
that, well written article. Good job

The h4s are subheadings of h2s because they are points within the respective 
h2. I'm not sure it would make sense to have them all be the same level of 
heading. Maybe there's a better way I could denote them as subheadings?

Your images don't have a titles either.
But you might want a different subheading. a smaller subheading.

Good catch on the titles!  I had put titles in when I uploaded the images, but 
somehow they ended up not actually in the post.  I also changed the headings a 
bit.

I just looked at the images and there are titles showing up for all of them.

Fabulous.  Thank you, editors!

Good job. Just a couple notes. 

Subversion is not a project management system. It is version control. We aren't 
using it the way it is supposed to. It is ONLY used for tracking code projects, 
so that causes some confusion on the title and subject of the post. Consider 
changing the title or context accordingly. 

WordPress Trac is one example of using another third-party program over 
Subversion just as Google Code Project does the same. 

The article is good, and explains how someone can use it for projects, I just 
want to make sure that readers understand that this is for version control of 
code, not project management specifically. 

Thanks!
