Vertigo Software Team System Blog - Team Explorer now available for free download!
"Microsoft launched CodePlex last week, their free, hosted Team Foundation Server site for open or shared source development. That’s fantastic news...
But the most exciting part of this announcement is that Team Explorer, the essential client-side piece of Team System that installs as a Visual Studio 2005 add-in, is now available for free download! That’s insanely great news! It certainly makes hosting your project on CodePlex a no-brainer. If you already have a Team Edition installed, here’s how to connect to CodePlex right now.

Very cool. Both in that Team Explorer is freely downloadable and seeing how easy it is to access CodePlex with it.
CodePlex being built/based on TFS is officially cool and now that any VS user (even Express?) can use it from within the IDE could make it a no-brainer hosting solution. The one problem I have with CodePlex is there’s no global feeds (yet, I hope). There are project level feeds, but no global/site feeds. I’d really dig something like "Popular Projects", "Most Recent Projects" and "Latest Releases" feeds (feedback submitted).
Still for a v1 it’s pretty darn cool...
