The comments about AlienBrain have a good point. AlienBrian was originally marketed as a gaming industry source control system since creating games consisted of thousands of media assets.
Subversion on the other hand was created out of a need to have something better than VSS and CVS that was open source for code. Considering the types of media formats you are looking at it, I'd have to concur with Peter and others that you should probably gander at AlienBrian as well. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Witham" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Flashcoders mailing list" <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Sent: Friday, April 21, 2006 10:55 AM Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] SourceSafe??? Recommendations needed. Hi, We have been evaluation AlienBrain, it is not free but the versioning and source control is excellent. There are plugins for Photoshop and MAX (have only used these two) which integrate directly with the database making the whole process quick and painless. You may want to at least take a look at it www.alienbrain.com one nice feature is the ability to view images directly in the client and compare them before checking out. Hope this helps, Regards, Peter Witham www.evolutiondata.com On Apr 21, 2006, at 9:18 AM, Loren R. Elks wrote: > Hi: > > We are slowing building our eLearning group in our company.
