SCCS  Code Control  ADVICE PLEASE:  

We are bringing FORTRAN code over from VAX/VMS for a data analysis system
on a SUN SPARCstation.  At present there is no plan to convert the FORTRAN code
to C.  We will be using PV-WAVE for graphics and a user interface.  There will
be a desktop publisher, but it will be used standalone and not hooked into
the FORTRAN modules.

There will be several programmers dealing with many modules.  The project
will require tight source code control.  We have limited experience with
UNIX and *No* experience with SCCS.  Is SCCS the best way to go??  Any 
suggestions ... admonitions ... advice will be appreciated.

Please reply by mail to:  uudot@vega.lerc.nasa.gov       THANKS!

PS:  Please no flames about FORTRAN :-)   someday we may see the light of C
