    Final word on unexpected VS 2008 Beta 2 expirations
    Final word on unexpected VS 2008 Beta 2 expirations
    Brian HarryBrian HarryOctober 30, 2007Oct 30, 200710/30/07
    The final mitigation for our unexpectedly expiring VS/VSTS/TFS 2008 Beta 2 VPC is now in place.  Yesterday we uploaded new VPC images with the expirations changed.  Again, remember that the issue only affects VPC images.  If you installed the actual setups, there will not be any early expiration issue. You can read more about...

    Bug handling on Connect & Transparency
    Bug handling on Connect & Transparency
    Brian HarryBrian HarryOctober 29, 2007Oct 29, 200710/29/07
    I've blogged a fair about over the past couple of years on transparency in our process.  I've also advocated for it a great deal internally.  This post caught my eye today both because it is a great commentary on transparency and a great description of how we handle bugs that customers enter throught the http://connect.microsoft.com ...

    I think I blogged about this site a couple of years ago but they recently improved it and it's worth another mention.  This is the best site I've ever seen for finding a handy list of the multitude of additional Team System add-ons.  I frequently complain to our marketing team asking "Why can't we have a list as good as theirs?" :).&...

    Error in VS/VSTS/TFS 2008 Beta 2 expiration date
    Brian HarryBrian HarryOctober 29, 2007Oct 29, 200710/29/07
    Some time ago, I wrote a post about the Beta 2 expiration date saying that it would expire in March 2008.  Well, for the non-VPC version that continues to be true, however, we have discovered that the OS image in the VPC is set to expire on Thurs, November 1, 2007 - only a couple of days from now and well before the March date that we ...

    TFS plugin compatibility between TFS 2005 and TFS 2008
    TFS plugin compatibility between TFS 2005 and TFS 2008
    Brian HarryBrian HarryOctober 19, 2007Oct 19, 200710/19/07
    As I've written many times, we strove to maintain a very high degree of compatibility between TFS 2005 and TFS 2008.  One result is that either client can be used with either server.  However, our success was not without exceptions.  One of those is that any code you've compiled against the TFS 2005 object model will always run ...

    TFS 2008 System Recommendations
    Brian HarryBrian HarryOctober 18, 2007Oct 18, 200710/18/07
    We have just completed our testing for TFS 2008 scalability and are ready to publish the final recommendations on server sizing and hardware configurations.  If you want to compare this to the TFS 2005 recommendations, you will find them here. Ultimately making capacity recommendations is a little like throwing darts at a board.  The...

    Final set of TFS test patches released
    Brian HarryBrian HarryOctober 16, 2007Oct 16, 200710/16/07
    Over the weekend we released the final set of TFS 2008 test patches for Beta 2 (see below for links).  As I described in an earlier post, these patches fix real bugs but are primarily to allow us to test our servicing process and make sure that by the time TFS 2008 ships we are able to quickly release reliable patches with a good ...

    We recently did a small reorg and my team is now responsible for the MSF components that ship in Visual Studio Team System.  This means I now need to understand it even better than I do now and work to make sure it's delivering everything you want.  Coincidentally, Jeff Beehler wrote a post asking for feedback on MSF.  I'd ...
