Jono, The question was a general question, we are using currently CCNET at work but it lacks functionality for us in these areas: distributing the load, access control and managing build artifacts. It also isn't improving very fast.
I've looked into TC (2.x I believe) and wasn't convinced then of moving over. It's current feature set is impressive and I think I will consider it again. Thanks for triggering me :-) Easy branch setup for Castle is a great benefit, and so are the duplicates finder and FxCop integration I believe. -- Roelof.
