The test migration of our TFS 2008 went extremely well (the import command processed nearly 7GB of data from our TFS 2008) in less than half hour, and all running in my notebook (not some kickass server...).

Today I executed the script published by Hakan Eskici to upgrate the process template from v4.2 to v5, by simply running a BET file. The process is very simple and fast, and after that we now have the updated process template with all the TFS 2010 goodies enabled.

Check out the process and download the script from http://blogs.msdn.com/hakane/archive/2009/10/19/sample-script-to-enable-new-features-in-upgraded-team-projects-tfs-2010-beta2.aspx

After the upgrade I created a new TASK and found the new "Original estimate" field, and the now separated "Remaining work" and "Completed work", and I almost cryied by the emotion...  :)

Also the BUGS have now the new "Repro Steps" and "Test Cases" tabs that are extremely welcome. There also more changes than this (for example the new Test Case WI) so give it a try!

Best regards,
