Paul Roub

We're sponsoring the December 19th meeting of the Tucson .NET User Group -- the usual deal: T-shirts, Fortress license giveaways, comics, and of course food and beverage money.

As always, if you're looking for a sponsor for your next .NET, Java, or Eclipse user group meeting, drop me a line at paul.roub@sourcegear.com.

If you're currently using Vault 4.0.x or Fortress 1.0.x, please upgrade to 4.0.6 or 1.0.6. These fix two issues that, though unusual, are no fun whatsoever when they occur.

See the release notes (Vault and Fortress) for more info.

A few weeks ago, we submitted SourceGear DiffMerge 3.1 for Jolt Award consideration -- because, for lack of a better turn of phrase, we think it's really cool. If you're not familiar, DiffMerge is a best-of-breed compare/merge tool for files and folders, running under Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. And it's free.

And this week we find that DiffMerge is a finalist in the Change/Config Management category. So congrats to Jeff Hostetler (the man behind DiffMerge) -- and we'll see what happens next.
