Thanks to everyone who attended this webcast. During the session at the end, I mentioned an action plan that you should follow if you want to start extending the user interface of Word, Excel and Powerpoint. Here it is again with the links behind each one:

  • Visit the “Office Fluent Ribbon Developer Portal” on MSDN
  • Look for a pilot application
