TeamSystemRocks Lives!
History: Last year, Mickey registered the domain name teamsystemrocks.com and started using the address to run his blog. I had been thinking about a VSTS community site for awhile and had the chance to talk to Mickey and we decided to collaborate on this. We also got some prodding from of the guys at MS who thought we should do it as well as some help from Joel and Dave. Omar actually did most of the heavy lifting to get the site live. I plan on moving my blog there and being a contributor to the Team System News blog. The Team System News blog is meant to have several interested people all indexing (manually) VSTS content and blogging it. I’ll still have my own blog for original content.
One of the key site features will soon be an implementation (hopefully) of the beta of File Gallery for Community Server. The idea is to allow people to upload their tools and customization to VSTS and then have discussion forums to support that. This could be MSBuild tasks, web test validation rules, custom process templates, etc. Omar’s had some struggles with the File Gallery pieces so far, but hopefully we’ll have that live soon. If you have any suggestions, go to the site and put them in the forum…
