Bob,
If all your development is done in eclipse, and the subclipse
integration works for you, then you're probably fine with it. We like
the stand-alone because we have developers across a range of tools
(eclipse, dreamweaver etc.) Myself, I'm a plain old VI guy, so having
a nice stand-alone subversion client is ideal in my workflow.
As for the negativity, I've noticed it as well, but neither myself nor
anyone else on my team using Versions has had anything to complain
about. A nice GUI for merging would be nice (as a few people have
mentioned in previous threads), but I haven't found anything that does
it well yet ;).

I'm confused about one important point:
We use Subclipse, a fully integrated Eclipse plugin, for all code
sharing within my small research group. Since we do all our code
development in Eclipse, I would think that neither Versions or
Cornerstone would be of use to us. Or is that not true?
Here's a discussion (2008) comparing Versions and Cornerstone
athttp://jadeohlhauser.com/2008/c_vs_v/
Both have changed since then, of course.
I've been watching this Versions list for maybe a year. The negative
traffic has chilled any thoughts I had for actually using Versions for
anything. I'm waiting until I see a lot less negative on the list
before putting my toe in the water. Also, if neither Versions nor
Cornerstone can be fully integrated into the code development we do in
Eclipse, then I'm at a loss as to why we should use either.

Hello Marijn/theDo,
I didn't mean to come across as defensively as I did, sorry about
that.
Having read your messages again I realize you care a lot about
Versions.
Development of the next release is going in a steady pace and we are
looking forward to present it to you,
and to tell everyone here more about it as soon as possible. This
release is not a 2.0, so it will be free of charge.
Kind regards,
Vincent

Vincent,
I'm just curious what Cornerstone currently offers that Versions
doesn't (This is actually the first I've heard of Cornerstone). I've
been pretty happy with Versions so far, but like to stay on top of
what is current.

Hello Marijn
That's ok Marijn, work has to be done on your site too.. though we're
sorry not to be able to live up to your time schedule.
Developers aint hanging around lazy doing bits and bites around here,
it is really lots of work..
The To Do list on the new release is rather huge but it is definitely
moving in the right direction.
The new Versions will be far more stable, the rough edges will be gone
and there is a modest but very functional feature list to
implemented.
The people that can wait (a little longer) won't be disappointed, I'm
sure about that.
Maybe you can trial cornerstone..
Friendly regards,
Vincent

Hi Vincent,
Unfortunately that isn't the response I was hoping for. Depending on
my colleagues decision I will now most probably move to Cornerstome.
This is really such a shame. One would expect at least a estimate
timeframe could be agreed upon...
Too bad, really, but my patience has run out.
Kind regards,
Marijn

Hey guys!
At this moment there is being worked on the bug reports of Versions.
The screens, the memory issues and a dozen other things to do...
However, Since this is not our only product, we don't have any exact
timeframe yet.
However we do realize the urge for improvement. No way versions get
snowed in but things cost time and effort…
Keep posting on the support site an please be patient.
Kind regards,
Vincent

I wholeheartedly agree with you. I've personally recommended
Versions
a few times to my colleagues, and now I feel embarrassed because of
the sluggish updates to Versions. I, along with several others,
continue pushing the Sofa team to speed up development, but I
personally fear that means version 2.0, which will require a new
license. I've been waiting several months for some minor
improvements
to Versions. The latest version even introduced some new
