January 26, 2007Jan 26, 200701/26/07Richard Berg has some news to share about SourceSafe and Vista support and he asked that I help get some eyes on it. If you are interested in SourceSafe, please take a look at:

January 25, 2007Jan 25, 200701/25/07JetBrains, the makers of TeamCity, Resharper and other cool developer productivity tools have begun integration with TFS (in addition to SourceSafe, Subversion and other systems they already support). They have a pre-release of TeamCity available for download. I encourage anyone who’s interested to check it out and let them (and me) know what you think about it.
January 22, 2007Jan 22, 200701/22/07Ever since we started dogfooding TFS internally, I’ve been working on a tool I call TFSServerManager. It’s a bit of a misnomer because it’s not really a management tool as much as it is an operations tool. In the very early days it started as a tool to help me produce the dogfood statistics you see on my blog every month –
January 19, 2007Jan 19, 200701/19/07Yesterday we posted a list of all bugs that were reported through the http://connect.microsoft.com site and fixed in VS2005 SP1. The link is here and you’ll find that there are 398 of them. You can click in the link for each bug and go to the Connect bug report and read details about the problem.
January 14, 2007Jan 14, 200701/14/07Back in October I published some results from the performance work we’ve done on version control for Orcas. We’ve also been working on work item tracking performance improvements – I mentioned them in our last dogfood server statistics. I’m very pleased with the results and thought I’d share them with you.
January 12, 2007Jan 12, 200701/12/07Thanks for tagging me Rob (I think :)) I can’t say I’ve ever heard of this game before but I guess I’m in. It seems a bit like a new version of a chain letter (do they every really go away?) but I suppose no harm is done 🙂
I don’t think coming up with interesting things about me is my strength.
January 11, 2007Jan 11, 200701/11/07I skipped the December dogfood update because the activity numbers were so skewed at the end of the month by people’s vacations. There’s nothing that particularly stands out about the dogfood server over the last month. It continues to grow. Availability has been good.
January 11, 2007Jan 11, 200701/11/07Great news! Visual Studio Code Name “Orcas” January 2007 CTP is now available publicly to all customers!! It is being released as a Virtual PC (VPC) image as well as a self-extracting install..
There’s lots of great new stuff in it –
January 6, 2007Jan 6, 200701/6/07I never got around to saying it when I got back. Sorry, just seems like there’s never enough time in the day to do everything. I hope everyone had a good time off – I know I did. I spent WAY too much time playing World of Warcraft.
January 5, 2007Jan 5, 200701/5/07Today we published a bunch of new Orcas specs. There are new/updated VS specs and 3 new (and 1 updated) TFS specs.
Folder Diff – The spec for the productized version of the TreeDiff PowerToy feature. Check it out and see the improvements we’re making.
