2008 Installation Questions

November 22, 2007 Nov 22, 2007 11/22/07
Brian Harry
Now that the 2008 wave of developer products has shipped I've seen a ton of questions about downloading and installing them.  In this post I'm going to tackle answers to all of the questions I've seen around VSTS/TFS. 1) Hey you guys say you shipped TFS but where do I get it? This is the most common and, unfortunately, most complicated ...

We have another MSDN hosted chat coming on December 5th.  This would be a great time to ask all of your remaining last minute questions about VS/VSTS/TFS 2008 and .NET 3.5 now that they have shipped.  As we've been doing, we'll have 2 at different times to help accomodate differing timezones around the world.  It looks like I ...

Brian Harry
Now that the 2008 wave of products have shipped, many of you are probably beginning to ask yourselves - "hey, what about the Power Tools"?  I know this because I've been bombarded with emails about it today :) We have a plan :)  I wish I could announce that they were ready to go but unfortunately we just weren't able to ...

Brian Harry
I didn't post a big list of features with my announcement post an hour or so ago.  However, here is a pointer to the final list of TFS 2008 features I posted a couple of months ago. http://blogs.msdn.com/bharry/archive/2007/08/08/final-tfs-2008-feature-list.aspx Also, Jeff Beehler has produced a very nice indexed feature list that covers ...

VS/VSTS/TFS 2008 are Shipping!

November 19, 2007 Nov 19, 2007 11/19/07

Today (Nov 19th, 2007) we released Visual Studio and Visual Studio Team System (including Team Foundation Server) 2008.  It may seem a bit anti-climactic after all of the CTPs and Betas along the way, however, it's a thrill to have it done, broadly available and fully supported.  You can go to http://www.microsoft.com/vstudio to find...

A new TFS to TFS Migration Tool

November 16, 2007 Nov 16, 2007 11/16/07
Brian Harry
What's that you ask and why would I want it? As you know TFS stores a ton of lifecycle data about application development - source code, change history, tasks, bugs, historical data, ...  If you use the TFS client tools, all of that data goes in and comes out of TFS very nicely.  However, there are lots of scenarios where that isn't ...

Brian Harry
Yesterday at TechEd in Europe, Soma announced that the 2008 wave of developer products (VS, VSTS, TFS & .NET 3.5) will ship this month (November).  We've been saying for a long time now that it would be this year but, despite repeated requests, we've refused to be more specific :).  Now we've narrowed it down to the month.  ...

November '07 DevDiv Dogfood Statistics

November 6, 2007 Nov 6, 2007 11/6/07
Brian Harry
It's been a while since I wrote about the DevDiv TFS statistics.  Sorry about that, I guess it's just been a really busy summer.  Usage continues to climb steadily and we are just now beginning the rollout to the rest of DevDiv.  The next version of VS/.NET will be built entirely using TFS - no more usage of the older internal ...
