Hey Mark, I'd especially like to see you discuss how to set up a project gate, and how to manage all the various hooks and options. With teamware, it was always quite simple to set up a project gate, so it would be nice to have a simple procedure to follow in the new world.
I'd also like to hear about some of the ways in which mercurial is better than teamware, and how it is worse. For example, wx list was nearly instantaneous whereas hg list takes 5 seconds locally and 20 seconds over NFS. Thanks. Adam On Tue, Dec 16, 2008 at 12:38:22PM -0700, Mark J.
