May Events
I spent last week on the road to Kuwait, Qatar and Abu Dhabi. The Microsoft Innovation Center in Kuwait is almost ready for the public, we even used the proper classroom for my presentation. Qatar is really lucky to have the College of North Atlantic - acoustically the best lecture hall I've presented in this past year. The Abu Dhabi session was a bit last minute, but we had a good conversation and nice Q&A from all attending.
The slides for the first part of the presentation is available: focusing on integration, SOA and standards.
When we discussed .NET versions, the focus was mostly on W*F as in Vista.
And my favourite topic of course, Team System involved both slides and a demo. You'll have to attend one of my sessions or take a look at some webcasts for demos.
This is what I currently hear in terms of CLR / Framework / Language versioning (to be corrected as I investigate more and as further Betas become available):
