Just another ignorant weirdo from Antwerp, Belgium trying to make sense out of it all
Tom has already been teasing about the Visual Studio .NET 2005 Beta Experience, and since it's getting more and more traction, I can finally say we're shipping WeFly247 in the EMEA region (Europe, Middle-East, Africa)! It's already been distributed for Beta 1 at VSLive! in San Francisco, but this time we're shipping it inside the box with the upcoming Visual Studio .NET 2005 Beta 2 release all over EMEA.
If you're new here, WeFly247 is a Microsoft project to showcase the new features of Visual Studio .NET 2005, and I'm very proud to have done most of the development for it. In fact, we've been very busy lately closing down the bits for Beta 2, which, as you can imagine, is pretty tough seeing Beta 2 doesn't exist yet
We'll be running a series of webcasts on the project to get you all excited, so come tune in if you can. Here's the information straight from Learn247:
We are pleased to announce that shortly we will be releasing the follow up to the highly successful Football247 and WeRock247 projects titled WeFly247.
As per our previous projects we will release a multimedia training DVD that will contain over 60 hours of audio recordings and coding labs on Visual Studio 2005 and developer technologies and full source code to the entire WeFly247 suite of applications.
The WeFly247 scenario focuses on a fictitious airline company and contains everything that a developer needs to know about building applications with Visual Studio 2005 beta 2.
The applications for WeFly247 scenario are broken down into 3 areas covering all areas of development, including Windows Mobile, VSTO, Smart Client, and InfoPath and much more.
As we get ready for the launch of the DVD and sample code, throughout April we will be running a series of WebCasts to highlight the technologies we have used in the WeFly247 solutions and give developers previews of the solution which we will release in April.
18 April: 5pm - 6:15pm GMT
