-			<b>SVN checkout (TuxMath and TuxTyping)</b><br />
+			<b>NOTE: TuxMath and TuxTyping are changing to git for source code management as of 23 Jan 2010!</b><br />
+			The git repositories for the Tux4Kids subprojects (tuxmath, tuxtype, tux4kids-admin, tux4kids-web, and t4kcommon) have been
+			created and will become the official method of code submission as of Jan 23.  Temporarily, they are located on the Alioth server
+			under alioth.debian.org/git/tux4kids/test/ with the names as listed above.  They can be cloned for testing with e.g.<br /><br />
+
+			git clone git+ssh://dbruce-guest@git.debian.org/git/tux4kids/test/tuxmath<br /><br />
+
+			When our git repositories are officially active, they will be located directly in /git/tux4kids and will have a *.git extension,
+			e.g:<br /><br />
+			git clone git+ssh://dbruce-guest@git.debian.org/git/tux4kids/tuxmath.git<br /><br />
+
+			Anonymous read-only cloning will also be supported but isn't yet working. <br /><br />
+			Note that with git, each project will have its own repository, rather than a single "tux4kids" repository for the entire collection.
+                        This is being done because git does not have the concept of partial-tree checkouts.
