Work in progress for next QVCS-Enterprise release...

I'm wrapping up work on the next QVCS-Enterprise release. It will have a few fixes and a few new features. The bug fixes are for corner cases -- for example, the client application has a bug where it will show an enduring hour glass if a user who lacks the privilege attempts to set the attributes on a file.

On the feature front, the main focus in the upcoming release is improvements in the ant task, including support for checkins. Along the way, I added the ability to limit the operation to a single directory, or a single file. As a result, the ant task provides the ability to do most of the things you need to do... The only big thing missing is support for the checkout operation. I may go ahead and add that just to make things more coherent and complete.

This next release will also include a minor change in the SCC implementation that will make things easier for PowerBuilder users.

I don't have a prospective release date for this one yet, but it will be sooner rather than later -- my guess is it will be out before the end of September.
