Thank you for the help, I'll get back to you with any doubts after I've
read through the info/links you provided. I'll try to keep track of what
I'm doing so that I can later provide (at least my) step by step guide on
what I did to get it working, For starters, I have to get a SVNServer,
which I did not install so far.
As far as the actual versioning goes, I don't really need to go through big
problems merging projects. We should be able to define just one base
version for each project and continue from there. That should make stuff
easier.
And as Simon mentions, I do have some terminology issues, I'm still
catching up with what what means =)
