VS2008 news from Barcelona

  • Article

Great to be in  Barcelona this week for Tech Ed 2007, which kicked off today with the announcement that VS 2008 and the .NET Framework 3.5 will be released by the end of this month. Did you know that for the last 9 months or so Dev Div have been using msbuild 2008 to build 2008 :-)? A real chicken and egg scenario but a nice validation of the product and its capabilities.

One thing I didn't know about was that premier VSIP customers will gain access to the Visual Studio source code to enable them to better design and debug add-ins to Visual Studio.

Finally before they close the exhibition hall here, I'm staffing an Ask The Experts booth tomorrow on Team System so if you're in Barcelona, drop by, failing that might see you at the Ireland party on Wednesday.
