Upcoming VSX Events

I can't believe it's
almost October, and our team is working on so many things right now. First, we
are trying to wrap up the platform components that we own in the VS 2008
product, including the VS Shell redistributable pack pieces. It's actually a
very exciting time for the Division right now as we are close to shipping the
final bits for VS 2008. Then, we are also trying to finish off VS 2008 SDK 1.0.
We are in the middle of our final 5-week feature sprint to add VB support to
the SDK, improve the VS Shell development experience and to support Vista UAC.
We are also fixing any high-priority bugs that we have. Our goal is to ship at
the same time that VS 2008 ships.

Aside from all this
engineering work, we are also busy preparing for various conference
appearances. We have our October VSIP Summit & Developer Conference from
10/15 - 10/19. This is going to be the largest VSX event we have ever had and
it will have both business and technical tracks. Anthony has been doing a great
job driving this conference. Then, we are going to be at TechEd Barcelona in 11/5 -
11/09. We are also holding our own Developer Lab at the end of TechEd from
11/09 to 11/10. At the same time, Ken and a couple of other folks will be at
DevConnections in Las Vegas. At the end of November, we will
be at DevTeach in Vancouver, BC. In fact, Ken is going to be giving the Keynote at DevTeach about
VSX. This is very exciting!

 

I will also be speaking at DevTeach about the new VS 2008 Shell. You can click
here to see the sessions at that
conference. I have never been to DevTeach before and I am looking forward to
it.

If you plan on being
TechEd Barcelona, DevConnections or DevTeach, drop me a line and I would love
to sync up with you!
