Yes. > 5) Am I correct that one should limit the activities Yes. The CVS machine should be fairly stable, because it stores your company "assets". A dedicated machine is better. It's ok to use the same machine for bug tracking and VCS related activities (depending on load, of course). Think it as a "vault" for your sources and related data. > 6) How do others handle builds?
