Recently, subversion has become a serious competitor for CVS. It is Open Source, based on the DAV protocol, implemented on Apache with the Open Source mod_dav protocol, and together with the DeltaV extensions it offers a full networked versioning control environment.
I wouldn't mention it, if the original question didn't involve MS- Office stuff; After all, CVS is still the king, dominates most of the Open Source projects and sites, from SourceForge to Apache and IIRC even mod_dav... ;-) But... Surprisingly, there is a very strong support for DAV from... ..Microsoft! It may surprise, but all the recent versions of Microsoft products, not only relevant ones (like FrontPage) but also Office and IE, have internal support for DAV. So I think that subversion+DAV is the ultimative answer in this specific case. But maybe I'm wrong; So my suggestion is to consider it and to evaluate how it meets your need, before making a decision. Disclaimer: I have no practical experience with subversion/DAV, though I've planned for a long time to start playing with it. -- Eli Marmor [EMAIL PROTECTED] CTO, Founder Netmask (El-Mar) Internet Technologies Ltd. __________________________________________________________ Tel.: +972-9-766-1020 8 Yad-Harutzim St. Fax.: +972-9-766-1314 P.O.B. 7004 Mobile: +972-50-23-7338 Kfar-Saba 44641, Israel ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
