Guiffy Software Joins the Application Development Community at CM Crossroads

Market Wire, April, 2005

CM Crossroads LLC, publisher of the Configuration Management Journal and host of www.cmcrossroads.com, the largest developer community for application lifecycle management, is pleased to announce a partnership with Guiffy Software, a developer of advanced cross-platform diff/merge software. In this partnership, CM Crossroads will host the official discussion forums for the users of Guiffy Software's diff/merge product, "Guiffy SureMerge."

CM Crossroads is a collaboration web site and portal designed to provide members with free and unlimited access to information and resources that will enable them to be successful with their application development and configuration management projects. By sponsoring the community at CM Crossroads, Guiffy Software both strengthens its commitment to customers and helps position itself as a leader in the Application Development industry.

"Because Guiffy SureMerge provides advanced, trustworthy auto-merge capabilities, our users are often involved with the most challenging collaboration (or not collaborating) source control projects," said Bill Ritcher, founder of Guiffy Software. "Since Guiffy includes a GUI application, Command Line Interfaces, and API packages, for both GUI and Non-GUI applications (server engines), our users often find creative solutions by applying our technology. And, many of our users have integrated Guiffy with SCM products that also have forums on CM Crossroads. The CM Crossroads forum is not only an excellent channel of communication between Guiffy Software and our users, but also for our users to share insights and knowledge directly with each other and to cross-connect with users using the same SCM products. We're thrilled to be hosted by CM Crossroads and to contribute our perspectives of CM to the community."

"Guiffy SureMerge contributes to advances in application lifecycle management by providing a trustworthy auto-merge technology which is easily integrated with popular SCM products," said Patrick Egan, founder of CM Crossroads. "By hosting their user forum at CM Crossroads, the Guiffy user community brings a group of problem solving people into discussions not only about their own tools but about general application lifecycle development topics as well. I am excited to welcome Guiffy Software to the community, and look forward to seeing how the Guiffy SureMerge users will add to the growing Body of Knowledge at CM Crossroads."
