CollabNet Desktop, Eclipse Edition allows software engineers to collaborate globally using CollabNet Enterprise Edition as a backbone to centrally track and manage the lifecycle of all source code and project tasks and assets. As part of this offering, CollabNet is providing a free download To receive a file transmitted over a network. In any communications session, "download" means receive, and "upload" means send. The download/upload often implies a big/little scenario, in which data is being downloaded from the "big" server into the "little" user's computer. of a complete Eclipse perspective for distributed software development, and commercial support subscriptions for its enterprise users. Leveraging its sponsorship of the Subversion version control tool, CollabNet continues to deliver solutions that bring more collaboration to the software development process. CollabNet Desktop, Eclipse Edition is the first in a series of new free products to be rolled-out in 2007 to extend CollabNet's position as the leading provider of distributed software development solutions. Making free tools available worldwide underscores the company's commitment to distributed organizations that are increasingly driving the growth of software development. Up to now, the market lacked an integrated development platform that drove project visibility, tracking and reporting without requiring developers to leave their development environment to contribute to lifecycle processes required by the enterprise. In a February 2007 research note by Gartner titled "Key Issues for Application Development Tools: Life Cycle Management Tools," the analyst firm states that companies will "need to match their development styles and needs to strategies that achieve an appropriate balance of ALM discipline and control, while avoiding overly rigid and restrictive processes and practices."1 Enterprises and developer communities that run on the CollabNet platform can leverage the integration between CollabNet and Eclipse today. The CollabNet Desktop and related plugins for Eclipse are freely available at http://eclipse.open.collab.net or on the Eclipse website. Access to related discussion forums and other community services are also available on openCollabNet (http://open.collab.net). In addition, CollabNet offers enterprise training, support subscriptions and consulting for the CollabNet Desktop. "CollabNet makes it faster and easier for developers to use the most advanced development tools available, in powerful synergies, without spending their own time building and configuring disparate tools," said Jack Repenning, CTO (Chief Technical Officer) The executive responsible for the technical direction of an organization.
