Therefore, we have built a power tool based on TSWA that will enable these 3 core scenarios: <\/p>\n<p>As a user without a CAL, I can: <\/p>\n<p>create new work items <\/p>\n<p>edit the work items I&rsquo;ve created <\/p>\n<p>see the list of work items I&rsquo;ve created<\/p>\n<p>The codename for this power tool is &#8220;TFS Bug Submission Portal&#8221; for now, and the official name will probably be different. <\/p>\n<p>To learn more about the details, please take a look at the <a href=\"http:\/\/download.microsoft.com\/download\/e\/0\/e\/e0ed04ec-bf14-4dd6-b5ad-22094b128498\/Bug-Submission-Portal.xps\">spec<\/a>.
