Hello Heather, I clicked the link but didn't receive a form. The tech preview is showing on my dashboard as pending however. Does this mean my interest has been registered correctly? Thanks, Alex.Anonymous

If the Connect dashboard shows pending for Office 2010 Technical Beta Nomination then you are registered correctly. You'll find out towards the end of July if you were approved.Anonymous

If you are having issues with the Connect site, use the email link above and send me the details of what issue you are seeing. Note that if you have applied for access you won't hear anything until the end of July. Also, if you've emailed me with issues, make sure your email is setup to receive mail from microsoft.com. I've had a few mails bounce back. ThanksAnonymous

I rec'd an invitation for the Office 2010 technical preview earlier this week. Last week, I registered using the nomunation form, my interest for the new Project 2010. When I go to the Microsoft Connect site, it shows that I am currently participating in the Office 2010 technical preview, however, I haven't rec'd anything from the Project folks. Will it be a separate process?Anonymous

We are part of the Office 2010 Technical Preview but do NOT see Project 2010 in the DL area - we see everything else? Is Project 2010 a separate program?Anonymous

Heather, It looks like the provided link is to the "personal" copy of the nomination form (which is already filled). Could you provide a link to the empty "public" form? Thanks!Anonymous

Hello Heather - my Connect site is still showing status pending, we're now past July - should the status be now something else than pending? Are the Beta bits already available for download? Thanks, -VilleAnonymous

Drat! I think I missed the call for nominations. Oh well, Heather, I hope you got enough suggestions from me at the last conference. I was the last person in the lab and grabbed you and a colleague to discuss my thoughts. Regards, MichelleAnonymous

Sorry everyone, the Technical Preview is full. If you come to the Project Conference you will be able to learn all about Project 2010.Anonymous

I am an independent Microsoft Project consultant / instructor - currently developing two sets of instructional materials. It would be very helpful to have a copy of the Release Candidate. How can I obtain that? Thank you, Lynn Frock, PMP and a Registered Partner.
