Via the
Scobleizer:
Is this a first? A major company leaking an announcement to a blogger? Jim McKeeth got the first notice that there'll be a Microsoft Professional Developer's Conference in 2005.
I went to the one in 2003 in LA. Very cool... I still have the Longhorn, Whidbey and Yukon bits they released (I wonder if these will be collector's items?) - as well as my C# book, signed by the father of C#: Anders Hejlsberg. Heh.
I'm not sure what they'll cover yet... but my guess is VS 2005... which is due in the Feb/March timeframe if I recall correctly; with SQL 2005 due shortly thereafter. But I thought that PDCs were for vaporware, not shipping software... so hopefully there will be discussions of Longhorn, the shift to 64bit computing and .NET 3.0. ;o)
