For people from the session who wanted the deck, I’ve posted it here for reference: [ link to ppt ].
All of the 2008 demos were done using a simple tictactoe solution. If people are interested in this source, I’ll clean it up and post it back to this site.
All of the 2010 demos were done from the 2010 CTP: [ link to ctp download site ].

Are there plans to provide hierarchy-based Team Projects in TFS? Example would be parent Team Projects.Anonymous

We have had several requests for this functionality. As you can see in the next release we will support work item hierarchy. We opted to invest in some other areas rather than full project hierarchy. This is on our backlog as a potential investment for followon releases.
