Hi guys,

A bit late in my response, indeed work has to be done here as well.  
Aside from the more refined commit window, an embedded diff viewer, a  
GUI for setting subversion configuration and a remembering my window  
state not that much. But those are features that would save me a lot  
of time during a day. My workflow is now pretty much Versions  
oriented, hence my demanding attitude;-) Really, I love the product  
but now that I have reached the point were we need to decide which way  
we'll go at the office, we are again considering cornerstone. Though  
I'll surely will keep following Versions development I might just have  
a small affair with the competing product. In my opinion it's just too  
bad development isn't going any quicker. I would pick out my credit  
card right away for merge support, there is for about $3000 worth of  
software on my computer, yet I spend most my time in a text editor  
worth $70 and a SVN GUI. I might as well spend some more...

Just my two cents

Kindest regards,

Marijn
