Microsoft to ship interim Windows Vista build to testers
WinInfo | at | by Mike
According to my sources, Microsoft will soon ship an unexpected "refresh build" of Windows Vista to its technical beta testers and some corporate customers. Previously, the company had been shipping only semi-monthly Community Technical Preview builds of Vista to testers and other audiences, including MSDN subscribers. The refresh build could be build 5340 or 5341, I'm told.
"Microsoft is considering releasing updated Windows Vista code to TAP [Technology Adoption Program] customers in the coming weeks," a Microsoft represented confirmed. "Microsoft regularly provides our TAP customers with regular Windows Vista code releases and this upcoming code release is consistent with our past engagement with this group. The Windows Vista code will not be a CTP release.
