V1.0 of the Migration and Synchronization Toolkit has been released!

mmitrik — Fri, 29 Jun 2007 19:00:00 GMT

The first complete version of the Migration and Synchronization Toolkit has been released on CodePlex! To get the latest source code, including the complete reference implementations, please visit the CodePlex page for the Toolkit: http://www.codeplex.com/MigrationSyncToolkit

In addition to updating the source code and reference implementations, a significant amount of new documentation has been added. From the home page of the CodePlex project, there are links to pages to help users getting started, define the features, and provide guidance of building a tool, just to name a few. Over the next few weeks, we will be adding to the content on the wikis, including some user feedback from our pilot programs for the toolkit.

Please also remember to give us feedback! Any comments on the usage of the toolkit, questions about writing tools, questions on using the tools, and comments on the documentation are all welcomed. All the feedback that we can get will ultimately help to improve the Toolkit, so please speak up if you have any comments.

Since the prerelease version, we've seen many requests for various tools to help migrate and synchronize data between version control and work item/bug tracking systems. Part of the motivation behind this toolkit was to encourage community development of tools for common systems used by TFS users and potential TFS users. If you are interested in starting an open/shared source project to develop a tool, please let us know, and we can help to get a project started on CodePlex.

A prerelease of the Migration and Synchronization Toolkit has been released on CodePlex! If you are interested in seeing the progress that we have made to date, and are eager to try out the sample tools, please visit the project site on CodePlex at http://www.codeplex.com/MigrationSyncToolkit

All of the source code and documentation for the toolkit is available on the project site. The source code can be downloaded from the .zip archive on the Releases tab. From the home page, the Getting Started page should provide all of the info to setup and build the toolkit, and the Release notes contains the info pertinent to this prerelease.

Please note that this is a prerelease version of the Migration and Synchronization Toolkit. Several features are not complete and as testing has not completed, the code has the potential to contain bugs and overwrite data stored in TFS. Please be careful to use this only in a testing environment and not on live production data.
