Re: Crazy idea - replace RCS backend with ClearCase...!!!

[Julian Gosnell]

Hadn't really considered triggers.

I figure they should still fire - after all they were
put there to keep the vob consistent - that is not a
constraint that suddenly disappears because I access
it through a different interface... - is it ? How are
you using triggers that would not map to this ?

Re your other mail about CC's fnality being a superset
of CVS'. It doesn't worry me. I simply want CVS based
tools to work. If you need the extra fnality, you
simply step outside CVS and talk in CC instead.

Fortunately I know people at Cisco - I shall give them
a bell.

Thanks for the pointer,
