Brian Harry has posted some great news over on his blog - Microsoft have release a new tool to allow users to migrate from ClearCase to Visual Studio Team Foundation Server. From Brian’s blog:-

A quick summary of the features of the tool:

Supports migration of base ClearCase VOBs

Migrate a snapshot of source control to TFS

Migrate files to Team Foundation Server while preserving history

Migrate branches to Team Foundation Server retaining the branching structure/hierarchy

Bidirectional synchronization of data between TFS and ClearCase

Hopefully this will really help people as they move from ClearCase or even people who would like to try TFS in a small isolated team but still synchronize back to the main enterprise ClearCase repository. Keep an eye on Matt Mitrik’s TFS Migration Blog for more details.
