Yukon Partner Status

  • Good job to VDT QA for wrapping up their analysis of the Full Automation Run on the Final Yukon bits checked in for Whidbey Beta 1 <Yukon build 834>;
  • Good job for getting a 100% passing on the SxS of Whidbey and Yukon <Yukon build 838>
  • QA are currently working hard to get the final Beta1 sign off complete <Nightly plus an OGF test pass>

Between Whidbey Beta 1 ships and Yukon Beta2 ships

  • [Mairead/Stephen/Srinivas] monitor Yukon bugs accepted in Yukon Shiproom to determine if we are broken or not by fixes accepted into Yukon branch via the Yukon meeting notes on their internal website.
  • [VDT QA] to do a weekly Full Automation run on newer post Whidbey Beta 1 Yukon builds to verify that our features set works correctly between Beta1 sign off and Yukon Beta2 sign off
  • [Abhishek + Mairead] Provide Yukon with a PM+ Scenarios to do a quick daily check that any of their bug fixes will not break our key scenarios in Whidbey

 

Side by Side Testing of Whidbey and Yukon on same machine

  • Side by Side testing completed successfully on Yukon build 838 <100% passing on nightlies>
  • The uninstall scenario causes some issues whereby if you install VS and Yukon on same machine and uninstall Yukon then VDT tools do not work in VS. You would need to do a repair via CD to fix this issue. The same occurs in Yukon if you do a un-install of VS. A work item has been created and assigned to VDT to solve this issue in Beta2 timeframe.

Beta 2 Status

DCR Planning

Current Status

  • A few DCRs are trickling in from VB Data team and internally within the VDT team
  • Devs working on the approved DCRs
  • Webdata have currently rejected any DCR requests on them due to their workload for Beta2. They may look at a few DCRs if the Beta2 dates slip out. We need to investigate what workaround options are viable for us to do in regards to our DCR requests we had on them.

    Hi,

    Just flicking through the aggregate page.

    Can you advise what Komodo Grid is/facilitates.

    Cannot find anything else about it but intrigued to find out if it relates to some grid/hpc function for Yukon.

    Cheers,
    Pagem.

    Komodo is the name of the SQL Server Tools group which is dedicated to designing and building distributed database management tools.

    Komodo has a feature which we <VDT> calls the Komodo Grid. From a reusability standpoint we reuse their grid within our Query Designer andd within our Table Designer.

    Very nice information. Keep it coming.

    So, does that mean you are having a party tonight :)

    You've proven my point (made elsewhere) as to the folly of posting this level of internal content. There is nothing here that is actionable by the consumer (ISV) and most of it is probably not even understandable.

    What value will anybody get out of this?

    This may be non-actionable, and even semi-incomprehensible information. But at least now you know how a brand-new Microsoft employee feels on their first few weeks of the job :-). This is all part of MS corporate jargon, and I'm sure you'll pick it up with enough exposure. I've been in the company for about eight months now and there are still terms that throw me at times.

    (I still don't know what FLDB stands for, and I'd love to have someone on the release team enlighten me :-) )

    Aaron: Be very very glad you don't know what FLDB is. If you show interest in it then someone might sick it on you.

    How can I get into the BETA program for VS2005. I have been using VB since V1.0 and VS since it's inception.

    Thanx,
