Having used several professional CM systems including Clearcase, I've come to the conclusion that CVS is preferable to most of them It gets out of your way and lets you work. CLearcase makes you spend too much time wondering about what machine is where and which machine the data base is using etc. Disks are cheap these days. As far as I'm concerned any company that goes for clearcase has it's heart in the right place for wanting CM but needs to think carefully about what it's trying to do. Usually clearcase has been teh 2nd last step before complete company chaos in my experience. Not the cause, but a symptom. > > Danny J.
