IBM DOORS Next Generation, Rational Quality Manager, and Rational Team Concert 5.0.2 were just released. You can read the release notes on Jazz.net. Notable in DNG are greatly enhanced file management and much needed updates to managing views. The Jazz Reporting Service is also promoted to more of a public …
RPE 1.3 was recently released and the very first thing I encountered with it was that you can no longer generate DOORS Next Generation documents from a DNG-generated document specification (.dsx) file in the RPE Launcher.
