Data Dude + Team Dev are now one plus it's now Visual Studio 2010

Microsoft opened up the kimono today on Press Pass.

The next release of Visual Studio is Visual Studio 2010 and the .NET Framework 4.0.

In addition, if you go down the page here, you find some juicy goodness:

"Better Together – Visual Studio Team System Development Edition and Database Edition
In recognition of the increased need to integrate more of the lifecycle members together, we will provide a unified Development and Database product in Visual Studio Team System 2010. Beginning October 1, 2008 Development Edition and Database Edition MSDN subscribers will have access to both products."

Great news!

End of line.

T-30: PDC 2008 Pre-con

Well, we're 30 days out from PDC 2008 pre-con day.

I'm doing a pre-con on VSTS.

A big part of the pre-con is best practices and worst practices, or anti-patterns.

As I get things all nice and packed up into a nice package with a bow on top, I'm curious.

If you're coming to my pre-con, what do you want to know? What are you looking for? What would make your day?

Feel free to leave a comment on this post or use the Contact link.

Listen to me on .NET Rocks and RunAs Radio

One of my passions is virtualization (esp. in the MSFT world).

In July, I did a .NET Rocks show and talked about Hyper-V and more.

Later I also did a Run As Radio show also on virtualization.

Finally in August, Martin Woodward and I did a Team System chat.

Enjoy.
