This workshop series is now over ten years old, which is a pretty
long time for a very focussed topic: Configuration Management. The
first conference took place in 1988 (Grassau, Germany) and the
topics were focussed on version control and rebuilding. Many people
consider that SCM is one of the few areas of software engineering
that can be considered to be really successful. Products, that more
or less fulfill their p- pose, exist, and everybody agrees that
they are now mandatory for a successful so- ware project. Indeed,
during the second half of the nineties, SCM has entered a
maturation phase, in which good commercial products have been
incorporating many of the features - signed and discussed at
previous conferences of this workshop. With the generali- tion of
commercial products, the question now is: What are the objectives
of a sci- tific workshop on this topic? Is there any more research
to be done in SCM today? This ninth volume in the series reflects
pretty well the current state and mood in the CM community. There
are an unprecedented number of papers discussing the current state
of the art and trying to identify research directions (session 6).
On some core topics, like versioning (session 3), and following
SCM8 tracks, papers present work on unified models. Versioning
models, after years of raging discussions, now seem to have found a
consensus.
