There’s coverage in CenterNetworks, who said:
The partnership will bring Assembla’s tools to the oDesk workers. Assembla’s tools include subversion and git code repositories, ticketing, collaboration, multi-project portfolios, and project management.

I’d be remiss if I let the day go by without mentioning the Ada Lovelace Day celebrations. As the father of two geekettes in training (GITS?) I’m all about women in science and technologies.
Girls are smart when they are young – naturally curious things who don’t mind breaking a nail in the pursuit of knowledge and world domination. They like jokes like “are those make with real Girls Scouts” and “Sudo make me a sandwich.” And they can be tough little things with a perspective on the World that you sometimes don’t expect.
My Twin Princesses love looking through the telescope, crazy Japanese robot animation, listening to shortwave radio and going to museums to see icky, slimy things. Number One loves the math exhibit at the New York Hall of Science.
I hope they never change.
