       lets separatedevelopers operate as a team        
       vendor branches keep versions separate, but also merge them if needed

       flexible modules database maps names to the components of a larger datab       ase 
       runs on most Unix variants; clients for Windows 95/NT, OS/2, and VMS ava	      ilable
