Within the blogging community at Microsoft we get plenty of “opportunities” (aka requests) for cross product announcements. Occasionally they catch my eye and today was one of those days. You may have noticed a new badge in my left NAV area (unless you are reading the RSS feed… so click the link) announcing the 2010 […]

As we in the US (or most of us) have just changed our clocks for daylight savings this is a great time to talk synchronization of server clocks.

As we approach release (see Christophe’s blog for the recent announcement) I am really impressed by the quantity and quality of documentation we have already put out for this release. The latest posting is a refresh to the Project 2010 SDK with some great updates to the developing Project Server workflows section (great work Jim!). […]
Delegation is a great new feature in Project Server 2010 that allows one user to allow others to act on their behalf. Very useful when a Project Manager is going to be out of town and doesn’t want to have to re-set the status manager for all her owned tasks just so someone else can […]
