Providing Feedback on Next Release of VSTO (in VS 2008 Beta 2)
I'm hoping many of you are as excited as we are about the upcoming release of VSTO - shipping in Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition. In this release, we'll have many new exciting features such as the ability to create custom Outlook form regions, support for ClickOne deployment, visual ribbon designer, VBA/VSTO interoperability, and much more.
I also hope that you've had the chance to download the VS 2008 Beta 2, as we'd love to hear from your feedback about your experiences. If you haven't downloaded and tried the VS Beta 2 (aka Orcas), then download today! You can find the download here: https://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/vstudio/default.aspx.

Steve, The VSTO team has made a great work with 3.0 and I'm looking forward to use the RTM. The deployment is very simplified and the Ribbon Visual Design makes it easy. Kind regards, Dennis
