We are learning how to use Jazz SCM. Could someone explain what the terms "Current" and "Active" applied to a change set mean when using SCM?
Thanks.

clm help describes them, here are quick links for your reference
http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/clmhelp/v4r0m2/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.ibm.team.scm.doc%2Ftopics%2Ft_marking_change_set_current.html here is an extract: Any change set that has not been completed can be modified by operations such as check in, move, undo, and remove; and is said to be an active change set. Active change sets cannot be shared with other repository workspaces because they are not stable. In any workspace, there can many active change sets for a component, but only one can be the current change set.from http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/clmhelp/v4r0m2/topic/com.ibm.team.scm.doc/topics/c_csets.html specifically, the Change set life cycle would be interesting to you hope this helps David Lafreniere selected this answer as the correct answer

Note that when you check in changes to a file that has previously been checked in to a change set that has not yet been completed, the check in will be against that non-completed change set, not to the current change set.
