Visual SourceSafe 2005, good and bad

I finally got a chance to install and use Visual SourceSafe 2005, and here's the tidbit I figured out along the way:

- You need Visual Source Safe 2005 to work with Visual Studio .Net 2005. VisualSourceSafe 6 won't work with VS.Net 2005.

- SourceSafe 2005 is no long a green application. Sigh :-<

- Visual SourceSafe 2005 can recognize SourceSafe 6 database and it works just fine.

- Visual SourceSafe 2005 is NOT included in VS.Net 2005 Pro. You have to find it in VS.Net 2005 TEam System DVD.

- To make VS.Net 2005 starts using Visual SourceSafe 2005, you need to go to [Tools][Option], and in SourceSafe section, set the Plug-in selection and Plug-in setting (for proper user name).
