Visual Studio Team System Web Access (formally known as TeamPlain Web Access) now Free

bharry's WebLog - Microsoft Acquires TeamPlain!

"Today we are announcing that Microsoft has acquired DevBiz Business Solutions, the makers of the popular TeamPlain Web Access for Team System. TeamPlain is a web front end for VSTS that enables users to access the majority of TFS functionality from within a Web browser....

...

TeamPlain will become Microsoft Visual Studio Team System Web Access. Effective today, TeamPlain is available, at no additional charge, to users who own a Team Foundation Server and can be downloaded from here. It will be accessible by any user properly licensed with a TFS CAL.

...

What version of TeamPlain are you releasing? - The initial download that is available today is TeamPlain V1.0. After we have run it through the Microsoft release process, we will be releasing TeamPlain version 2.0 as a VSTS Power Tool. V2 includes some cool new features, including Viewing/Managing builds, additional version control capability, AJAX support for a more responsive experience and larger project support, and much much more.

..."

I love free stuff. Especially when it fills a huge hole/need. Not having a web front end has slowed TFS usage where I work ("but our existing system has this web page, why doesn't TFS...", etc, etc) and this should help close that out

Downloading and installing it now (I wonder if I should read something first? Na...installing it on my TFS server now :0
