As a developer, you simply commit your fix to wowace SVN, and you know people will get it, now you have to push a bugfix release and stuff from a webinterface. Guess we'll see how it all works out.

Thats what I get for typing things up while at work. They're not enforcing much revision control, but they do retain a historic set of revisions, which can be reverted to when the developers make a mistake, and /generally/ changes made at least have an attempt at documentation. This is as opposed to just tossing them up on a website somewhere, with the potential to lose all changes after each update.
