RE: RE: sos 3.5.3: crash on get from label

We feel the latest preview of version 4.0 is stable (we're using it for
our own development), although we still have to include a disclaimer that
is "shouldn't be used in a production environment".  If you're interested
in trying it, visit http://support.sourcegear.com/ and go to the section
entitled "SourceOffSite 4.0 Preview" where you'll find download
instructions, etc.  4.0 can be run on the same machine as 3.5.3, although
only one source control provider can be configured in Visual Studio at
one time, so within the IDE you would have to switch back and forth.
