Microsoft has released a Beta reader for the Architecture Journal (AJ). The reader is, of course, written using WPF and and reminiscent of the NY Times reader. You can find the beta journal reader on the Microsoft Download site.
I’ve shrinkterized the url at http://shrinkster.com/smw in case you want to share by word of mouth (Yeah, shrinkster is back online….yeah!).
I came across this via: http://www.infoq.com/news/2007/11/aj-reader
It seems that there is a NewsReader SDK out there being slaved over.
I was unable to attend last year’s CodeMash conference; a mistake I do not plan on repeating this year. I heard a lot of great things about the conference from last year and I’m looking forward to heading up to the conference in January.
If you’ve not heard of this conference then …..well, I just can’t believe you haven’t with as much hype as there is in the local blogosphere. Anyway, in case you’ve been hiding under an Microsoft Access Project rock for the last few months, CodeMash is a two day conference in Sandusky, OH.
Over this last week I’ve been working with pre-existing build scripts that previously pulled from VSS to move to TFS. After we get the build running we’ll start looking at getting it into TFS Build, but for now the goal was to just migrate the code and make sure we could keep building. While converting the VSS MSBuild Community Tasks over to use TFS command line calls (tf.exe) I was dismayed by the fact that the command line help starts up the Help documentation in a window.
