RE: sourcecross.org - Subversion-SCC project

Thanks Karl. We don't have an official name for the Scc-Subversion
interface project as such - but that link is excellent. (We have a
couple of different projects in the pipeline so the community name had
to be generic)

If this thing about the SCC API being public is true, we may even have
some stuff available for public download - but I don't want to be sued,
so I'm going to be cautious and seek confirmation.

I added the link, but with a note that sourcecross isn't an open
source project due to the NDA issue. (I think this will be important
to a lot of visitors to the links page, and all the other projects on
the page are open source afaik).

By the way, is the project's name "sourcecross.org" or "SourceCross"
or... ? Your mail only said "sourcecross.org", so I used that as the
project name.

Best,
-Karl
