Visual Studio 2005 may slip to 2006 !?!

UPDATE: MS has just had a press release moments ago where they say VS2005 will be available Nov 7th, 2005 (along with SQL Server 2005 and BizTalk 2006). So it seems the leak from Borland is either a big assumption/rumor. But Im not too happy yet, as this wont be the first time MS has slipped on a date. I hope this date is for real.


Ok maybe this is the wrong place to post news items but I think people should hear this rumor from a MS partner...

Shipment of the much-delayed upgrade to Microsoft

Eludes?

Anyway, I hope this isnt ture. Winsupersite still lists Whidbey as Mid-2005.

Winsupersite is an awesome site, but somebody working with the VS2005 team would provide more accurate info than an outsider.

BTW, VS2005 isnt arriving anywhere near "mid" 2005, if you look at your calendar were already at mid 2005 and MS hasnt even hit RC1, much less RC2 or RC3. This shows how inaccurate Winsupersite is for this type of info.

The more I think about this, the more I realize theres no way VS2005 will be finished before xmas 2005.

Well Im thankful that BETA 2.0 has a "Go Live" license.
