Finished Filming: Whidbey Overview

Ooops, we filmed our last episode on the 17th, and I still haven't gotten around to “blogging” about it yet. This episode focused on “Whidbey”, which is the next version of “Visual Studio”, and it will include a lot of features, technologies, as well as a whole new set of tools focused on providing advanced architectural design features for applications. There's far too much in Whidbey to cover everything in one episode, so in this one I tried to provide a decent overview of what the main focus points were.

Over this last weekend we “shipped” Beta1, based on all of the e-mail I saw from the team, there was a lot of work being done to make sure that this was a high quality beta. I haven't installed it yet, but I plan on doing that as soon as I can.

If you've installed, and started using the beta, why don't you drop a comment here and just quickly let us know what you think about it.

    The page

    http://msdn.microsoft.com/vbasic/whidbey/

    is very informative - but is there anywhere we can download the beta from, instead of ordering the CD?

    I can't wait to see this new episode. I use Visual C# 2005 express beta 1 and until now it work just fine. I love the new Intellisence, work juste better than in VS2003. Hope the show will be there really soon

    What is the release schedule for the show? I'm impatient, I know, but its late July and its been a good while since the previous screening :)

    Did the post say "last show"? I hope he meant "latest show"...

    Were messing around with changing the process for building out the show, and we've run into some process snags that are making it take a little longer then normal. We hope to get the next episode out in a few days.
