It’s Official Now: SharePoint Server 2010

Finally, the official words from Microsoft: the new incarnation of SharePoint server product will be named “Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010”. The “Office” is dropped from the title (as “Portal” was dropped from SPS 2003) since many users associate it with client-side software. The bad side is that we won’t be using “MOSS” as a synonym any more. :-(

The other news is that the first wave of new products is coming: Exchange Server 2010 is available in beta version now. We still have to wait for SharePoint 2010, though.

Well, it seems that the new version definitely won’t see the light this year. Let’s hope it won’t be too late in 2010.
