subwcrevcom 1.8 incompatibility

Hi,

Apparently, subwcrevcom was substantially changed from 1.7 to 1.8, but the interface name and GUID remained the same.

This leads to serious errors when we try to use our internal tools compiled against 1.7, for example, the Url property returns a date.

This situation is nearly impossible to handle correctly. It is hard to create a tool that works with both versions and detects which one is installed. Updating all our tools and installations at once is also not easy.

I kindly ask you to consider using a proper COM versioning scheme, like adding an ISubWCRev2 interface that derives from ISubWCRev, or at least change the name and GUID of the interface so that it doesn't conflict with the previous one. We use and love subwcrevcom a lot, this change would add a lot to its usability.

Best regards,
Jozsef
