Groove to get a name change
ENT News | at | by Mike
Microsoft Office Groove 2007 will get a name change next year that's more in tune with the SharePoint side of things.
The client product will be known as "SharePoint Workspace 2010" and will be added, along with OneNote, to the Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2010 product, according to a Microsoft announcement published on Wednesday.
Groove is a collaboration and document-sharing client application, with optional server support, that is designed for small teams of two to 30 people. The client application is currently available as part of the Microsoft Office 2007 Ultimate edition. Groove originally was the brainchild of Ray Ozzie, who now serves as Microsoft's chief software architect.
