The session is not a deep dive into any one specific area but intends to show how Analysts, Developers, Testers, Team Leaders/Project Managers/Scrum Masters and members of the extended team can use Visual Studio and Team Foundation Server to make delivering working software easier and more predictable.

You should attend if you would like to gain a broad understanding of the capabilities of Visual Studio and Team Foundation Server. The session will be using Visual Studio 2010 and Team Foundation Server 2010 but it is not specifically intended to provide an introduction to the new features in 2010, but to provide an overview of the entire development platform.

If that sounds of interest please email ukvsts@microsoft.com. We can’t guarantee places but there are a few available at the moment.

Cheers,
Giles
