Next steps with Connect

As you may know we are nearing the end of the Office 2007 beta and we are getting ready to release Office 2007! Office 2007 is schedule to be available to business customers (and I assume MSDN subscribers) in Oct 2006 and it will be available to consumers in Jan 2007, see here: Microsoft Confirms Timeline for 2007 Microsoft Office System. So what does that mean for the Connect site which is designed for handling betas and beta feedback? We are still going to use the Connect site!

 

As you can tell from my last post we really do listen and we really value your feedback, that being said we consider the OneNote Connect site a success. We want to continue with that success and we will:

  • Continue to watch the feedback coming into the Connect site
  • Continue to look for bugs or issues we can fix in a service pack
  • Continue to solicit feedback, suggestions and feature ideas for future release of OneNote

We will do all of this with the Connect site and once there is a beta of the next release available we should gear up the Connect site again. Although our replies on the Connect site might take longer we will continue to monitor it. I think most of us just want to take a vacation and clear our heads.

 

I would suggest that everyone look @ the public newsgroup:

BTW We read these as well : )
