(Launch != Release)

Published 14 July 07 10:37 AM | dmckinstry

A quick interrupt in my 3-part DB Build blog.  I just received a clarification from my local Developer Evangelist regarding the release of Visual Studio 2008.  His point was that the February 27, 2008 date that has been publicized for Windows 2008/SQL 2008/VS 2008 is NOT the release date - it is the launch date.

According to Chris Koening, the release date is still this year.  There is no exact date but they still expect Visual Studio 2008 to ship in 2007!
