Re: ILE make tools

[Alan Campin <alan0307d@xxxxxxxxx>]

Change management systems provide systems to build different environment,
to move code and objects forward though stages but the main thing that
change control systems do is provide security. It keeps programmers from
putting source and objects into production without an approved request.

The problem in your environment is who are you going to lock out if you are
the only developer? Introduces a lot of complexity which doesn't make a lot
of sense for single developer shop.
