It will be hard to sell one of the FOSS solutions to management, especially if they caught the Clearcase bug (but all the big boys have it), but Subversion will be easier than most because: - it is similar to CVS (in commands, IDE support, and in the fact that it is centralized) - it is developed by former maintainers of CVS - it has corporate sponsorship, and they sell support contracts florin -- If we wish to count lines of code, we should not regard them as lines produced but as lines spent. -- Edsger Dijkstra -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
