I've repeated the feature list from a previous blog post: Unfortuately this release is...
Last night I returned from Tech-Ed 2006. I got to do one presentation on TFS - sort of a "day in the life demo". Unfortunately feeback was mixed - some people loved it but the pattern in the negative feedback was that the screen resolution was too high making it too hard to see and that I tried to cover too much stuff and lost to...
Just a brief note about stuff coming down the pipe for TFS... MSSCCI Provider We are working on a new release of the MSSCCI provider. It will have a variety of fixes for bugs that you have reported and that we have found internally. Some of the notable improvements include: We're expecting to have this new MSSCCI rel...
You know how it goes - somehow there's just never enough days in the week to get everything done you want to get done. A couple of weeks ago I promised to post the queries I use to collecting statistics on our server - and other than feeling bad about it, I haven't done much. I'm at Tech Ed this week and looking for any excuse to avoid prepp...
You haven't heard from me for a while because I've been taking a bit of a break for the past month to help out at home with our new daughter. I returned to work on Monday. As I'm getting back into the swing of things, I thought it would be a great time to write a new blog post. I apologize for the length – there’s a lo...

We are in the process of releasing an updated MSSCCI provider to work with the released version of Team Foundation Server. We expect to post a new drop the week of April 3rd (no exact day at this point :)). The coding and testing is pretty much done and we're just working through the release mechanics now. This new build will have a gre...
As you can tell from the cadence of releases and information coming out, TFS 2005 is getting pretty close to shipping. We've entered what we call "escrow". That means we think we've fixed everything we need to fix and are performing our final full test pass to ensure that there haven't been any new bugs introduced recently or any c...
I want to appologize for the problems people have experienced with strong name signing and the updated MSSCCI provider. We should not have posted it with a manual work around of disabling strong name signing for the test key. Although many developers will already have it disabled for testing their own code, it's generally a bad practice...
Yesterday we posted the latest update of the TFS MSSCCI provider. In addition to the support for VS6 in the last pre-release, this new version also works with VS2003, VS2002 and FoxPro. It is likely it will also work with other MSSCCI enabled environments (like the SQLServer tools, PowerBuilder, etc.) but no testing has been done on oth...
