As many of you may already know, Connect 2.0 was released to the public on June 3rd, 2006. This release included many upgrades to the existing Microsoft Connect web site, including a new presentation of the feedback area. Customers can now view most recent, top rated bugs/suggestions, or see the issues that they have posted directly on an overview page from the primary navigation link located on the left hand side panel. Plus many other new features.

As part of the intended purpose of Connect, that is to create a collaboration environment between customers and the various product groups at Microsoft, Connect itself has also become a site for which you can go and submit your comments, bugs, and/or suggestions about your experience on Connect. This new "Connection" as we are now calling them is located at http://connect.microsoft.com/Connect. Add this connection to your favorites folder in your browser and use it frequently to view the latest topics and discussions about Connect itself. Vote or add your own comments to existing issues you have an opinion about. This is our way of continuing Microsoft's concept of building applications, services and tools that customers are asking for, not just what think you may want.

Thanks,
