Microsoft outlines 'Common Engineering Roadmap'

Microsoft Tuesday introduced what it called the Windows Server System Common Engineering Roadmap, an effort intended to create consistent server capabilities across the entire Windows Server System product line.
"This is analogous to the time when word processors and spreadsheets didn't look or work alike," said Andy Lees, Microsoft corporate vice president of server and tools business, during the Tuesday keynote of Microsoft's Tech Ed conference in San Diego. "Word and Excel and, later, Office changed that. The common engineering roadmap is our strategy for doing the same thing on the server."
