RE: Use of CVS for manufacturing software control

[Schwenk, Jeanie]

Steve,

I'm also in manufacturing (semiconductor). Do you need to control tool
software/recipes or software that communicates with the developed software
you have in cvs?  What do you mean by verify - do you need to just verify
the size and date of the executable or exact text or is it a visual
inspection?  Will vendors have access to do updates?   Can you communicate
with the items (tools, pcs whatever)?  How is cvs used in your manufacturing
environment now?  What MES do you use?  In order to answer your question, is
CVS practical, really depends on exactly what you need.  Please send
details.
