Microsoft Paves the 'Glidepath' to Vista
MS-Watch | at | by Mike
Microsoft is readying a new Vista evangelism program and related software components, aimed specifically at small independent software vendors.
As Windows Vista continues to inch forward, Microsoft is increasing its outreach to independent software vendors ? even the smallest one- to three-person firms -- in the hopes of convincing them to write applications for the next version of Windows.
The latest Vista evangelism push is code-named "Project Glidepath." Glidepath is the name of both the program and the Visual Studio 2005-related components and technology for building applications for Windows Vista and .NET Framework 3.0.
