January 29, 2008Jan 29, 200801/29/08We’ve gotten quite a few requests from customers over the past couple of months for more information comparing each of the VS 2008 product offerings. We have just published a pretty massive feature comparison to help you pick the product that is right for you.
January 29, 2008Jan 29, 200801/29/08Here’s a nice blog series I ran across on requirements management with Team System, Team Foundation Server and some 3rd party products. We are also working on a whitepaper to provide an overview of this.

January 25, 2008Jan 25, 200801/25/08The popular TFS add-on for administering permissions across TFS, SQL Server Reporting Services and Sharepoint has been updated to support TFS 2008. The tool, call TFSAdmin, is available on CodePlex here: http://www.codeplex.com/TFSAdmin/Wiki/View.aspx?title=Home
