TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I'll add that, as with any VCS, FrameMaker's binary files are going to
consume vast quantities of storage, compared to ASCII (text) files. If
you can script a process (or edit FM's controls) that makes it easy to
always save as MIF, you will save storage (only diffs get checked in)
and you will be able to merge if necessary (with all the varied success
that comes with, e.g., nothing easily merges two conflicting edits of
the same content or object reference like an image file name).

Hi,
Anybody know of a way to use FrameMaker (unstructured) with Team
Foundation Server?
We are storing MadCap Flare projects in TFS but I want to start putting
FrameMaker projects there too.
Thanks for any advice.
Steve
