Today we deployed our sprint 40 update to the Team Foundation Service<\/a>.\u00a0 You can read more about it on the release notes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We continued to make progress adding valuable components to the build images.\u00a0 We have two significant issues with our build images at the moment and both will be solved in the same way.\u00a0 First, we don\u2019t have the ability to build Windows 8 store apps.\u00a0 That\u2019s because our build VMs are based on the older Azure VM roles and they don\u2019t support Windows 2012 (you have to use Windows 8 or Windows 2012 to build a Win 8 store app).\u00a0 Secondly, we are about out of space on our VM images so we are being super careful about what additional components we add \u2013 and working to prune stuff that isn\u2019t necessary.\u00a0 Both will be solved by moving to the newer Azure IaaS VMs.\u00a0 The PaaS small VM roles we use have 35GB of disk space.\u00a0 IaaS VMs have 128GB.\u00a0 And, of course, we can run Windows 2012 on IaaS VMs.\u00a0 The work to port from PaaS VM roles to IaaS VMs is under way now and I hope I\u2019ll be able to share more with you early next year.<\/p>\n

The other big thing you\u2019ll notice in this release is a significant facelift on some of our web based version control UI.\u00a0 There are many changes and I\u2019ll let the release notes speak for themselves.\u00a0 I just want to include one screenshot that demonstrates the change.\u00a0 This is a changeset from history.\u00a0 We\u2019ve gotten rid of tabs, added inline diffs, etc.\u00a0 What you\u2019ll see show up today is just the beginning.\u00a0 We have quite a lot of version control work underway and you\u2019ll see more improvements over the next several sprints.<\/p>\n

Lastly, I wanted to observe that we are headed into the holidays.\u00a0 On our 3 week schedule, we\u2019d have our next deployment on Dec 31st.\u00a0 As you can imagine, we\u2019re not really psyched about deploying on new year\u2019s eve.\u00a0 Plus with all the vacations this month, there\u2019s not going to be a ton of change.\u00a0 We will still do a sprint 41 deployment \u2013 but we\u2019re planning to delay it a week \u2013 so we\u2019ll do it on Jan 7th rather than Dec 31st.\u00a0 We will continue with our normal schedule after that \u2013 so sprint 42 should deploy on Jan 21st (only a 2 week delta from the delayed deployment).<\/p>\n
