Announcing Visual Studio 2010

Since I'm a Visual Studio fanboy, I love hearing about the future of Visual Studio, now officially named Visual Studio 2010.  While the team is taking a measured approach to disclosure, something they haven't done in VS 2005/2008, I did get the scoop on the future of Visual Studio Team System with Norman Guadagno, the Director of Product Management on what the key themes are for this release.

 

Norman Guadagno: Announcing Visual Studio Team System 2010

What about bits?
Unfortunately the team hasn't released any public bits that you can play with to try these features hands on.
