WinFX September CTP Docs are Live

  • Article

The WinFX September CTP browsable docs are posted live. Check them out at their usual location, https://winfx.msdn.microsoft.com. As usual, please let us know if you see ANY problems in the docs. Operators are standing by.

The full download of the WinFX SDK has hit some snags. We'll have it up and linked to from the main CTP download page as quickly as we can. It's frustrating, I was hoping to send some of you PDC attendees to the SDK over the next few days. I hope we can get this working soon.

We're especially excited about this online doc release because it might be the last one we release using our old build system. MSDN is currently in the process of rolling out a new build system, called MTPS, that will leverage the power of SQL Server 2005 and ASP.NET to deliver a more high-quality site to our users. I don't want to sound like an advertisement for the new system, but I became an expert on our old system during my five years at MSDN. MTPS is a quantum leap forward from the batch files and odd templates we used to use. I'm glad I'm not doing production work anymore, but I do envy the people at MSDN who get to test-drive this flashy new car.
