Launch day is here and I’m pleased to announce the product is final and available now!
I can easily say this is the biggest tools release I’ve been involved with in over a decade working on .NET and Visual Studio. The work in the product represents in some cases (such as the CLR) four years of innovation coming together. I want to say a big THANK YOU and CONGRATULATIONS to the entire team.
In just a little while I will continue our world wide launch events here in London followed by Bob Muglia in Las Vegas. We’ve already completed the events in Malaysia, China, and India. In addition to the keynotes, we will have local events around the world and will have streaming media available for you.
Finally, thanks to all of you who downloaded pre-release builds of the product and provided your feedback. You’re feedback has been invaluable to us.
Enjoy the release, I can’t wait to see what you create…
Oh no! I get a 404 error from the link! :-(
Not published in MSDN subscriber downloads either
When is The Precioussss going up on MSDN Subscriber Downloads? We wantss it NOW!!!!! :)
Thank you! When will it be available for MSDN subscribers? Can't wait after the end of countdown for Final release. It's like a new day
Timezone trouble, I expect.
The twitterers are saying 10AM PST, which is not 10AM where Jason is at the moment.
Any idea what time this will be available on DreamSpark? There seems to be trouble with time zones and stuff, so could you please tell me what time it will be available in GMT?
Thanks
(by the way, as stated in the comments, the link does not work, it throws a 404 error)
Yes, when will it be available for MSDN download?
Chuck: LMAO!!! Seriously MS, the crackheads have been trolling MSDN since 3am-- WHERE IS IT!!?!?!?
Pitiful… no MSDN download available??? We used to be privileged and get it first. Seems those days are long gone.
Come on Tad - it's not the start of the working day in Redmond yet. MSDN/VS download launches have always been a bit shambolic, so there's no golden age to hark back to either.
The screw-up here is Jason's post has jumped the gun - everything else points to 10AM PST.
It is 8:10 am EST and the link does not work. What are you doing Microsoft?
In Britain It will be available 6pm and 7pm in western Europe it seem according to the twitter traffic going about . So the gun has been jumped somewhat :D
I don't see any mention of the Express versions. Are they due for release today also ?
IT IS NOT IN MSDN! This is obnoxious to be taking orders when you are not fulfilling for loyal paying MSDN customers. VERY disappointed.
still no sign on subscribers downloads :/
