<May 2010 - Updating with SharePoint RTM links.> 

Since the beta for SharePoint 2010 was publicly released in November 2009 there has been a lot of interest and activity by our customers and partners testing and planning for SharePoint 2010. About 90% of my activities these days is directly related to working with customers and partners on SharePoint 2010.

Below are some of the main resources and links that I share with people. Hope these help. Please share others with me and I’ll update and maintain the list. Thanks!

P.S. For those of you in the Boston, MA area – I’ll see you soon at the SharePoint Saturday event on Saturday, February 27, 2010. Sessions will be offered there for end users, developers and IT pros.I’ll be leading a session there on SharePoint as a Development Platform.
