MSF for Agile Software Development and MSF for CMMI Process Improvement Version 4.1 Available

Yesterday, we released brand new versions of MSF for Agile Software Development and MSF for CMMI Process Improvement. These new versions create the first commercial agile and CMMI-based software development processes with support for database unit tests and refactoring.
