Hi Dave, thank you for this video.
You’ve mentioned running WordPress locally.
Could you tell if there’s any difference between http://core.svn.wordpress.org/trunk/ and http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/trunk/? (as mentioned here: http://blog.ftwr.co.uk/archives/2005/11/03/windows-wordpress-toolbox/)
