Windows Server 2008 has gone into the final test stages: Escrow. If all goes well it is expected the RTM build bits to be delivered on January 16th. After that all the teams working on Windows have to "sign off" the build (till Jan 23rd)
The week after that there will be "media verification" whatever that may be and then the Release To Manufacturing on February 6th.
We already know Windows Server 2008 build is in sync with Windows Vista Service Pack 1, so do the math.
February 27th is the worldwide launch of Windows Server 2008 together with Visual Studio 2008 and SQL Server 2008 in Los Angeles. There will be launch events around that day all over the world.
SQL Server 2008 has not yet RTMed yet on its launch day!
WSUS 3.0 sp1 can be expected in this time frame too.
Hope they have one of their free giveaway some time after like they had for Vista.
According to www.crn.com/.../205207950, they also removed the 50 user-limit and the database restrictions from Web Server 2008!!!!!!!
Multiple Microsoft Sources told me today, that the claim in this post, that today, January 16th 2008, RTM build bits are to be delivered, is wrong.
Hmmm
It's now nearly a week after the 16th and no sign of RTM.
Any updated news??
Their was an issue with printer system so RTM bits are postponed. When I know new dates I'll post it on main page
