So, in other words - you aren't happy with it because it happens to come
from M$? Obviously other products have used this standard - so it's not
alone. Also, again - you can configure Studio/HS to use other tools via
the command line. I think you are just being difficult now. Your
original statement was that if you didn't use VSS, than the SC
integration was worthless. That is wrong. The integration may not be
perfect, but it certainly _does_ work with other products.
