Another innovation in the evolution of Hotfixes

I've been keeping you all abreast of changes in our Hotfix plans.  More than a year ago, we introduced the notion of advertising hotfixes and enabling people to browse and download the hotfixes the find most useful.  Prior to that, the only

Expression and TFS

Warning - this is early information and is subject to change but the Expression team cleared me to say something about it. We get a lot of feedback from customers who would like more seamless integration between Expression and the rest of their development

PDC 2008 & precons

Preparation is in full swing for the Microsoft PDC this fall (Oct 27 - 30).  PDCs are the primary event where we talk about the future (as opposed to events like TechEd where we primarily talk about the present).  This PDC promised to have a

1 week left for SP1 Beta feedback

We are nearing the end of the window for collecting Beta feedback on VS/VSTS/TFS 2008 SP1. We are actively taking and working on feedback through the end of the month. I haven't heard too much feedback yet. I know it's hard to get excited about testing

2008 Beta Update

A few things that I've run across in the last few days...   1) If you have both TFS and Team Explorer installed on the same server, you may not upgrade just one of them to the SP1 Beta, you would need to upgrade both of them if you want to upgrade

VS/VSTS/TFS 2008 SP1 Beta is now available

Sorry for being a bit late to the game...  I should have posted yesterday but I've been drowning.  As you may already know, we released the Beta for 2008 SP1.  I'm eager to have you try it out and give us feedback.  You can find the

A new home for Visual Studio Hotfixes

We've been publishing hotfixes for general download for a year or so now.  Although it has been reasonably popular, it never took off (in terms of publishing or downloads) the way I had hoped.  Part of the problem, I believe, is that the advertising/download

Some good screencasts

Terry Clancy has some very nice screen casts on his blog. They are worth checking out if you have interest in these areas. He has one on X-Plat development with VS that includes an overview of Teamprise to X-Plat development using TFS and OpenMake for

Revitalizing the VS hotfix downloads

In my last post, I referred to "a couple" of VS2008 initiatives that we are breathing new life into. In that post I talked about our specification sharing process for Rosario. The second one we've been reinvigorating is our publicly available downloads

VSTS codename 'Rosario' Specifications begin to arrive

During the VS 2008 product cycle, we started several new initiatives to increase transparency.  Some of them continued strong and some of them sputtered.  We are breathing new life into a couple of them.  The first to be reinvigorated it

Visual Studio 2008 SDK has been released

Along with the RTM of VS/VSTS/TFS 2008 and .NET 3.5 this week, we have released a compatible version of the Visual Studio SDK . The changes to the TFS portion of this SDK are fairly minimal. We updated all of the TFS samples so that there are both VB

2008 Installation Questions

Now that the 2008 wave of developer products has shipped I've seen a ton of questions about downloading and installing them. In this post I'm going to tackle answers to all of the questions I've seen around VSTS/TFS. 1) Hey you guys say you shipped TFS

VS/VSTS/TFS 2008 are Shipping!

Today (Nov 19th, 2007) we released Visual Studio and Visual Studio Team System (including Team Foundation Server) 2008.  It may seem a bit anti-climactic after all of the CTPs and Betas along the way, however, it's a thrill to have it done, broadly

VS/VSTS/TFS 2008 Release is near!

Yesterday at TechEd in Europe, Soma announced that the 2008 wave of developer products (VS, VSTS, TFS & .NET 3.5) will ship this month (November). We've been saying for a long time now that it would be this year but, despite repeated requests, we've
