Windows SDK docs are live!

The Windows SDK docs are now live on MSDN. These mainly focus on some of the cool new technologies you can download using Windows Vista, and also include the WinFX content that is included with the SDK. Before you ask: yes, we know that search sucks on the site. We're working on that. Meanwhile, if you see any other bugs, please please please send us your feedback. Every mail that comes through the feedback alias is read by actual Microsoft employees and we always will act on comments. Here's an (admittedly banal) example of such feedback:

From: [Microsoft employee who doesn't blog]
Sent: Monday, August 15, 2005 5:28 PM
To: WinFX SDK Feedback
Subject: Documentation Feedback (WinFX Beta 1): FormView.PagerTemplate Property

I've got this one.

From:  [outside user]
Sent: Monday, August 15, 2005 4:38 PM
To: WinFX SDK Feedback
Subject: Documentation Feedback (WinFX Beta 1): FormView.PagerTemplate Property

The PagerTemplate documentation on this page is wrong. CommandName="Next" and CommandName="Prev" should be CommandName="Page" CommandArgument="Next" and CommandName="Page" CommandArgument="Prev" respectively.

We often have longer, more involved threads, but anyway this should give you an example. The MS employee will probably have this sort of interaction count towards her review goals - almost all employees are responsible for user contact - and therefore her pay will be affected by the attention she pays to this issue.

Next up for us: the WinFX September PDC and the combined Windows SDK that we're giving out on DVD for all PDC attendees.
