PDC: Show me the Bits
I was just looking over the material
we have on the public website about the PDC: http://msdn.microsoft.com/events/pdc/
. One thing I don’t think it does
justice to it just what bits PDC attendees will walk away with. If you are like me you will not believe
it to you see it in the bits. So I
wanted to give you our current plans (always subject to change) on what bits
will be giving to everyone that attends the PDC.
- Longhorn! You have seen screen shots from leaked
versions, now get your own copy! Not only will you get to see
*some* of the new look and feel stuff we are doing, but you will also
get and SDK and tools support for programming to the huge new managed APIs
that longhorn offers. (more on
that in a later post).
- Whidbey .NET Framework and VS
Whidbey – See the work we have done in the platform AND the tools that target
that platform.
- Yukon – For you data heads, you will
love this… Stored procs written in C#\VB, way cool.
Oh and, BTW, be sure to bring a DVD
drive to the event!
