We've seen some reports of client connectivity problems when people upgrade a previous version of TFS to TFS 2010 and configure it to you the same URL.  This is the result of some stale client cache info.  Bryan Krieger has written a post on recognizing and fixing the issues.  Check it out here: http://blogs.msdn.com/bkrieger/archive...

Now that Visual Studio 2010 has shipped, people are asking about preferred hardware configurations.  Customers want to know how to take advantage of all the cool new features that we have packed into this release.  We have published minimum hardware and software requirements, of course. You can install and run Visual Studio 2010 on almost...

I've seen a few questions lately about configuring TFS with MOSS.  The official MSDN documentation isn't quite ready yet.  In the mean time, Jon has written a blog post describing the steps necessary to configure it. http://blogs.msdn.com/team_foundation/archive/2010/03/06/configuring-sharepoint-server-2010-beta-for-dashboard-compatibilit...

When we were planning the requirements for TFS 2010, we decided to take a dependency on Office 2007 and later.  This enabled us to make some significant improvements to the TFS integration due to extensibility improvements in Office 2007.  However, I've seen a few customers who are stuck on Office 2003 and have been disappointed to see th...

Well, kinda.  I'm actually at work :) But I made it back to North Carolina finally this morning.  It was another delay packed trip with about 11 hours of waiting in the Moscow airport and another 7 hours of waiting in New York (due to the missed connection caused by the Moscow waiting).  Another night of lost sleep but I'm finally ho...

I've written quite a bit about how hard we worked in this release to improve the TFS installation process.  All through the pre-release process we tracked success rates and issues using telemetry.  In every release (beta, ctp, rc, etc), we tried to learn and get better.  Once we RTM'd that telemetry became "opt in" rather than "opt o...

After two canceled flights and countless hours of waiting over the weekend, I have, sadly, decided to throw in the towel on the rest of this trip.  I lost out on going to Croatia and it was not looking good to get to Prague.  Today, they closed Bulgarian airspace.  After already having two 36 hour runs of being awake this week due to...
