I recently spent time in Korea helping our customers understand Jazz Extensions and OSLC.  Many of the questions came from people who are very familiar with Rational ClearCase and ClearQuest.  As we discussed Jazz and Rational Team Concert, they kept trying to tie the Rational Team Concert concepts back to the concepts and terminology that they already knew.  So, I thought it would make for a good blog post, if only to buy myself some time to learn more about OSLC and the Jazz API.

It turned out to be a LONG blog post, so i decided to break it up into a couple of articles on Jazz.net that you can read.  The articles are meant to help users of ClearCase and ClearQuest translate the concepts and terminology that they are familiar with, into the newer concepts and terminology used by Rational Team Concert.  The articles are:

• Comparing concepts between ClearQuest and RTC
• Comparing ClearCase to RTC

Select the articles that apply to you, and expand your understanding of Rational Team Concert and Jazz.
