By: CollabNet The company also announced that registered members of the Open CollabNet community can receive 2.5 hours of free Web-based training for CollabNet Desktop at http://www.open.collab.net/ Version 2.0 features substantial ease-of-use innovations and deeper integration between Visual Studio and the CollabNet products than ever before. CollabNet Desktop—Visual Studio Edition is available as an open source download at http://www.open.collab.net/ The AnkhSVN component of the desktop solution enables developers to perform common Subversion-related tasks without leaving Visual Studio, including viewing the status of source code, updating a Subversion working copy, committing changes, and browsing repositories. The latest version of the software increases developer productivity with seamless integration and an all-new graphical point-and-click interface. Associations between pieces of code or between code and defects are now made with drag-and-drop precision, eliminating the need for error-prone re-typing or cutting and pasting of defect numbers. Multiple issue and bug trackers are now supported for end-to-end collaboration between developers and testers for defect management. “With a focus on change management and version control right from within the IDE, the second release of CollabNet Desktop—Visual Studio Edition provides developers the tools they need to create custom ALM solutions,” said Doug Seven, senior product manager, Visual Studio Team System, Microsoft Corp. “Microsoft is pleased that partners like CollabNet utilize the Visual Studio product line to assist customers in software development.” “CollabNet Desktop—Visual Studio Edition serves as a hub within the IDE for all change management and version control activity for the Visual Studio developer,” said Jim Ensell, vice president, business development, CollabNet. “The new software links Visual Studio, CollabNet TeamForge, and Subversion tightly together to provide a complete platform for globally distributed and collaborative software development.” CollabNet TeamForge provides users with a wide range of ALM capabilities, including software version control, bug tracking, requirements management, and release packaging, along with collaboration tools such as wikis, discussion forums, and document repositories. The largest and most successful open source software communities in the world, including java.net, openoffice.org, tigris.org, and the award-winning Forge.mil, are based on CollabNet’s ALM platform. CollabNet, a Microsoft Visual Studio Industry Partner, will be demonstrating and distributing the CollabNet Desktop—Visual Studio Edition at the Microsoft Professional Developers Conference, November 17-19, 2009 in booth 1017.
