Brian Harry
Sorry for being a little late with this but I’ve been traveling this week and it’s thrown me off.  On Tues May 28th, we deployed our Sprint 48 build to Team Foundation Service.  It was quite gratifying to see the deployment go incredibly smoothly given that the last few sprints have been a bit rough.  I’d like ...

We are getting close to shipping Visual Studio and Team Foundation Server 2012.3 (Update 3).  This week we shipped Release Candidate 2 (RC2).  We’re down to fixing just the last few bugs and if you are thinking up upgrading to Update 3, now would be a good time to give it a try and let us know if there are any last minute ...

Update: Um, egg on face.  When I first posted this, it ended up having the email thread with the customer attached.  I updated it to remove it as quickly as possible but I sincerely apologize. I got an email from a customer a couple of days ago asking about issues he was having with Team Foundation Service.  After looping in ...

Brian Harry
Yesterday we launched a new Windows Dev Center.  You might ask “Why are you telling us about that, Brian?”  Well, the answer is that my team is responsible for MSDN and much of the infrastructure behind it.  We partner very closely with the Windows team team produce an awesome Windows Dev Center.  Yesterday was the ...

Some thoughts on a comment about VS 2012.3

May 8, 2013 May 8, 2013 05/8/13
Brian Harry
Yesterday, I got a thoughtful comment from Dean on my post about Update 3.  I sat down to write a response this morning and it turned into a but of a novel (in fact, the blog says it’s too long to post as a comment ).  So I’ve turned it into a post.  Here was Dean’s comment: Brian, I looked at the list of fixes, you...

TFS 2012.2 Power Tools update available

May 8, 2013 May 8, 2013 05/8/13
Brian Harry
Yesterday we released our update to the TFS 2012 Power Tools to work with VS/TFS 2012.2 (Update 2). Yes, I see the irony in announcing this the day after announcing the first “go-live” Update 3 CTP   It took us longer than we had hoped to get the Power Tools ready.  However, we’ve made a key change to ...
