It is an essential part of any CM system to ensure that artifacts are under
version control, and that team members have access to approved baselines. The idea of
updating views to ensure access to the most recent collective body of work is
obvious. This activity needs to be easy to do and occur on an ongoing basis.
Each team member having updated a view, can work on any artifact through the
standard process of 'check-out, edit, build, unit test, and check-in' as
described in the Activity: Make Changes.
