I asked Jeff for the slide he presented and have copied the data here.&nbsp; It&rsquo;s roughly categorized.&nbsp; I&rsquo;m not promising the categorization is completely accurate or that we haven&rsquo;t left out anything but it&rsquo;s close enough.&nbsp; It would be nice if I had dates and download links for each one but that would be quite a bit of effort for me to track down.\nOn my last post there was quite a lot of commentary on the VS update process and I&rsquo;ve seen this issue of semantic versioning come up several times.&nbsp; I have several thoughts on this I&rsquo;d like to discuss but I think I&rsquo;ll save that for a new post.<\/p>\n<p>Here&rsquo;s the list of releases.&nbsp; This list was put together around the end of June so, it&rsquo;s the 18 months before that.&nbsp; This includes all of DevDiv, so it&rsquo;s not just Visual Studio, it&rsquo;s .NET, Silverlight, Expression, etc too.<\/p>\n<h3>Power Tools<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>PerfWatson extension on VS 2010 SP1<\/li>\n<li>Help Viewer Power Tool<\/li>\n<li>TFS Power Tools &#8211;
