Perhaps this may not be a question specify about Ant itself (or maybe it
is) but there are certainly people in this group that know about release
management.  
 
I wrote some scripts using Ant and CVS to help our dev team create local
Sandboxes that they can develop in.  Ant/CVS are great for this.  I use
the same scripts to deploy new code to the QA and production servers.
 
The outstanding issue that I have is incorporating Database changes into
this process.  Everyone has their own Postgres db in their sandbox.  I
know I can write sql scripts for adding new tables, fields, etc but part
of the beauty of Ant/CVS is that we can use it to roll back to any
version we may need to � this could be a nightmare where the db is
concerned though.
 
I am just wondering how people handle this sort of thing through an
automated process.  In the past it has been a manual thing for us.
 
Any input is welcome
 
Regards
