eWeek | at | by Mike
Microsoft released the beta version of the upgrade to its developer tools platform, Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1, on its Microsoft Connect Web site on Sept. 26.
In a blog post on the same day, S. "Soma" Somasegar, corporate vice president of Microsoft's developer division, said the Service Pack is in direct response to customer feedback and addresses issues that were found through a combination of internal testing, customer reports and results from the MSDN Product Feedback Center.
Meanwhile, Somasegar addressed the issue of the service pack being released later than many developers might have expected or desired.
