Tonight is the Virtual Launch Party @ PowerScripting Podcast

Tonight is the night! 

I was super happy when we shipped V1 of PowerShell.  It started the journey.  That said, V2 is the release that we really wanted to release. 

Today Windows 7 is publicly available and every version has PowerShell V2 in it. 

Tonight – we party!

I’ll be cracking a beer with Hal Rottenberg and Jonathan Walz (hosts of the PowerScripting Podcast) in a PowerShell V2 Virtual Launch Party tonight at 9:30 PM EDT (GMT-4). 

For more details and info on how to join us go HERE.  I’m looking forward to seeing you.  Note, you can always watch the podcast after the fact but if you join, you can make comments and ask questions in the chat room – lots of fun.

Where to download it for server 2008? Hasn't it been RTM in the MSDN bits for Win 7 and 2008 R2 MSDN for a while?

Great show and thanks so much for PowerShell 2.0!  It already kinda of bites when I have to go back to 1.0. :-)  Good luck on planning for the next release.

Sweet and thanks for moving the shell into the future for all platforms.   The command line competition needed to see that something powerful and useful could be done and you took it beyond just a shell for interacting with files.   Great job.

Great show in the early, early morning. But I now I have an urgent need for 2 hours of rest, before I continue to (mis^H^H^H-^H)use ISE for some cool database stuff.

ISE the next EMACS

For all the admins:  Thank you for letting us "work big".  Oh, and I am not afraid (comfortable with even) of .NET or C# anymore either.  GLO indeed!  (Good Lookin' Out)

# re: Tonight is the Virtual Launch Party @ PowerScripting Podcast

Great job! PowerShell 2.0 enhancements will really help to draw attention and build momentum.

So when will V2 be available for download for pre-Win7 operating systems?  I was expecting it to come out on Win7 launch day...

# re: Tonight is the Virtual Launch Party @ PowerScripting Podcast

There is no PowerShell v2 on my Windows 7 RTM Enterprise that was downloaded way before Oct 22nd via volume licensing.

Are you sure that v2 is included? :-)

Monday, October 26, 2009 1:20 PM by Martin

# re: Tonight is the Virtual Launch Party @ PowerScripting Podcast

Ok, PowerShell v2 is included, but still in the v1.0 folder.
