I have ClearCase. I can test it. Although I am not a committer, I have

response to the bug report.

Steve, Question: Does developer = committer ? Since the project is open source, 
isn't anyone who contributes to the code a developer?

Sorry, yes, I am duly chastised. forgive me!

I guess I suffer from pent ill will to clearcase, as it is the only SCM system I am actually scared of. VSS I dont regard as real SCM, but when ClearCase starts playing up, your project can lose days of time, leading to the "get the virgin to sacrifice a goat" conversation with management (we needed the virgin so if the goat sacrifice doesnt cut it, we had an escalation policy). Or in my case, by cross mounting my PC's CC share from somebody elses system to get back at the data that CC decided I was unworthy of seeing.

(apparently using CC for Unix kernel development is even worse; if the kernel changed the filesys that morning, you couldnt see the SCM repository to get it back).
