it doesn’t appear as flexible or as useful (imho) as the JEDI SVN plug-in
or indeed straightforward Tortoise. This could be the result of being an
SVN “adapter” that is part of a generic (little “g”) version
control plug-in framework, rather than being SVN specific, as such. Just
a guess.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>like I say I had really not
seen anything definitive. Admittedlty I didnt look THAT hard :-)<br>
Begs the question, why upgrade? About the only thing that I have seen we
can use right now is the SVN stuff, and the Final builder stuff could come in
handy.<br>
We have just abount finished upgrading a project from D2007 to D2010, well its
upgraded just working on new functionality, and Generics was a good reason for
us to upgrade and its definitly paid off I have to say.<br>

One thing I am not sure about, and I keep hearing conflicting things,
will XE have cross platform support? I have seen and heard about there
being not 64bit, and I have seen the extra tools that are now in Xe fromt he
videos, but they seem to have stared well clear of any info on cross platform.<br>
Without opeing an hornets nets, will XE have cross platform? if not, will it be
in an "update" patch? I am just confused about it now.<br>
