April 30, 2007Apr 30, 200704/30/07Among the most common questions I hear about TFS are “How do I structure my Team Projects?” and “How do I organize my branches?” Clearly both are very related questions. We’ve put together some whitepapers to help give some people some guidance on both questions.
April 27, 2007Apr 27, 200704/27/07We’ve decided to add another Team System Chat today at a time that is more convenient for our Asian customers. It’s probably still not perfect but should help. The additional chat will be on Friday, April 27th, 2007 from 4:00pm –
April 24, 2007Apr 24, 200704/24/07Our friends at Attrice have released version 1.3 of their TFS Sidekicks tools. These tools are great add-ons to TFS that add great functionality to Team Explorer. This new version includes a “shelvesets sidekick” and improvements to the labels sidekick. Download it and check it out.

April 19, 2007Apr 19, 200704/19/07Orcas Beta 1 is now available for download. I don’t think all of the SKUs are available yet – they will be dribbling out over the next week or so but the VPCs for VSTS Team Suite and TFS server are available now.
April 19, 2007Apr 19, 200704/19/07We’ve been working for the past several months on a new Power Tool – a TFS Best Practices Analyzer. The goal of this tool is to diagnose TFS configuration and operation problems quickly and easily. As you probably know, TFS is a pretty complex installation and has many places where things can go wrong.
April 18, 2007Apr 18, 200704/18/07This is my last post for today, I promise. But Ed Glas (on the VSTS Test team) asked me to help publicize this. We recently posted a new release of Fiddler – a really nice web test recording tool. It was not written by the VSTS team but they have started contributing to it because it’s a great tool.
April 18, 2007Apr 18, 200704/18/07I touched on one aspect of customer involvement in our quality efforts in my last post about Dr. Watson. There are a variety of other metrics we track and measure ourselves against that are more overtly community oriented. Before I drill into the metrics we track,
