Feature discussion yes, sales pitch no.

I’m working on version control and online synchronization
tool for technical visual files.
It’s freeware now and will be free.
Right now I published the beta version 0.11 (see link in my post signature) This version contains these functions:
File synchronizationFull
commit history (keep all revisions of file changing)Visual
diff for image files (dual image view with comparison)
How it works: my tool is SVN client for
Windows. SVN (Apache subversion) is free version control server, written for
software developers. Some engineers use it with TortoiseSVN client to
handle with CAD files. I think I could do it more simple and useful, because my
tool focused on engineers.
To use the “Version control for engineers” you
need download and install last version of client and choose your SVN-hosting provider.
Now I work on SVG images diff preview.
I need for feedback from you to make the “Version
control for engineers” more simple and useful.
Please post you questions and ideas here.

Does you tool support meta-data descriptor in terms of drawing inventory data points?The program I use now is also for CAD drawings and let me specify handy inventory sorting criteria such as:Client, ProjectNum, Location, Floor, Discipline, Document Status, etc.You should consider this as well.

Thank you for your question!"Version control for engineers" is file-centric software. It helps you to manage the repositories of files.If program you have used was save the sorting criteria in local file – VCE can handle it too.Can you post the name of software you have using?[QUOTE=randydy]Does you tool support meta-data descriptor in terms of drawing inventory data points?The program I use now is also for CAD drawings and let me specify handy inventory sorting criteria such as:Client, ProjectNum, Location, Floor, Discipline, Document Status, etc.You should consider this as well.[/QUOTE]
