TaylorMichaelLMVPFriday, October 23, 2009 1:48 PMTo follow up with OmegaMan's original announcement: Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 is now available.
You can get it here: http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products/2010/default.mspx
Beta 2 can be installed on production machines with the usual caveats. Note that B2 fixes a lot of problems in the earlier betas so be sure to test against B2 before submitting (or posting questions about) 2010. This will save everyone a lot of time.
The tentative release date for 2010 as commented on by MS is 22 March 2010. A Go-Live license is available for those brave enough to go that route. It is discussed here: http://blogs.msdn.com/jeffbe/archive/2009/10/19/going-live-with-visual-studio-2010-beta-2.aspx
Be sure to tag all posts related to VS2010 with the VS2010 (or 2010) tag. If you find reproducible issues in VS2010 then be sure to submit them to MS at the Connect site (http://connect.microsoft.com). That is the only way to get things fixed.
