[Proposal] Scamp: Source Control Abstraction

2002-09-17 Thread Weber, Lance
Following some interesting discussions on the Maven list, I'd like to propose starting an SCM abstraction project, tentatively named Scamp. Proposed Goal: Scamp is a Source Control Manager abstraction layer. It provides a standard interface to SCM systems allowing common source control
