Well, we used to have a page with Subversion consultants on the IGLU wiki, but it is now offline along with all the other Eskimo services[1]. Here is what it contained from my memory: 1. http://www.pti.co.il/ (Gabor Szabo, etc.) 2. http://lingnu.com/. 3. Shlomi Fish (me) - http://www.shlomifish.org/ Maybe there are others, but they should speak now. > I think that another reason behind ClearCase is that they have actual > sales people.

Well, I can prepare and deliver a presentation, but I tend to be an awful speaker. While I have never used it in the past, I've heard some very bad things about ClearCase, and Subversion is much better in this regard (although CC has its advantages). > Any suggestions or recommendations? > Thanks, > Regards, Shlomi Fish [1] - hint, hint, Shachar Shemesh. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Shlomi Fish [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://www.shlomifish.org/ If it's not in my E-mail it doesn't happen.
