Visual Studio and TFS 2008 Compatibility with Earlier VS/TFS Versions

  • Artikel

As most people are aware we released VS and TFS 2008 some months ago, but what seems to be a question that most people are asking is about compatibility.  Well our MVP Grant Holiday and VSTS Product Group GURU Brian Harry has posted the most clear and informative I can find on the subject:

The chart below from Grant Holiday's site..provides a good view of what compatibility looks like between all of the VS/TFS products and Power tools.  Check out the rest of the information on this on his blog: https://ozgrant.com/2007/10/22/vsts-2005-2008-compatibility-matrix/ 

For the roadmap of compatibility and quite frankly to hear the VSTS information from the horse's mouth so to speak, check out BHarrry's blog on TFS Features at: https://blogs.msdn.com/bharry/archive/2007/08/08/final-tfs-2008-feature-list.aspx
