  Hi, I have been following this blog now and trying to get as much information I can over the last 2 days. I was wondering if one would be able to subscribe to the technical review team and become one of the reviewers of this wonderful product? Kind regards, Sean

  Can you share details about "Web based Project editing"? How is it supposed to work? Also is there any change to the Macro interface? We are heavy macro users and want to know if our macros will still work in Project 2010. thanks, Jennifer

  Hi to Everyone:     As we join a New Decade of Computing I find that most Programs work better when we merge them.  This Project will merge Great with Windows Beta 7000.

  Dear Project Team, My experience is that this next edition of Project should be more available, by either a striped down "Basic version" or some other way. I run in to clients who don't have Project and then I am forced to pdf it. Include project into an "Office pac" or as mentioned release a striped down and much less costly version, your volume will more than make up for this. Thank you, Maurice Gulson Marine Project Manager
