This update has 3 significant bug fixes: 1) Add support for VS 2012 Express for Windows Desktop 2) Fix a bug that ...

Lessons 451 & 452 in farming

OK, I made up the numbers.  I debated what to call this post.  Adventures with a horse?  Water: a famer’s nemesis?  It’s been a fun couple of days. Sunday night the whole family was out doing chores and my wife and kids were exercising the horses.  I finished up the chores and left them to wrap up with the horses – feed them, clean up etc. Ye...

Brian Harry

This is one of those posts that I can’t win by writing but I have to anyway.  It can’t make anyone happy and will undoubtedly garner me some amount of flame, but here it goes. We’ve been working hard over the past couple of years to improve and expand our web experiences for TFS.  In TFS 11, this came through all the nic...

I try not to use my blog for too many personal things but I couldn't resist.  A good friend of mine, who also happens to be one of our Visual Studio ALM MVPs, sent me an email.  He told me about a project his daughter has undertaken to have the world commemorate the life and work of David Warren - the inventor of the flight data recorder,...

Brian Harry

It’s been a crazy week with all of the announcements.  Among the demos I did Wednesday was one that hasn’t gotten much coverage yet.  The reason is because you can’t put your hands on it but you will be able to in about a month.  We introduced a kanban board into Team Foundation Service in August and released it in TFS 2012 Update 1.  We identified...
