A few points on the IBM products. SCLM has multiple modules. Base SCLM is in z/OS itself, and then the various other components come under the SCLM Advanced Edition umbrella, a separately licensed product. I would not characterize SCLM Advanced Edition as basic in function.
Also, you can actually do TSO check-ins/check-outs to Rational ClearCase now, with ClearCase on Linux on z being the preferred choice for such installations. There are also ways of integrating SCLM and ClearCase. And, as part of SCLM Advanced Edition or available separately (and with WDz), there is an Eclipse plug-in for SCLM so that developers can maintain source in SCLM even for code that isn't currently targeted to run on a mainframe.
