Hello!

This is a question. It would be great if they release (at least
selected) bits also for MSDN Universal subscribers for download. On
other hand, PDC attendees (probably) would not sign any king of NDA with
regards to bits, so in case you know anyone who is going, the you may
have no problem. Other alternative is to try contact some local MS
representative you know.

As for tech preview program, beta1 of Yukon runs from begin of August
for very small carefully selected group of external (from MS point of
view) testers. Also there is tech preview of Whidbey (from begin of
July) - very small group of testers. I was told that chance to get in at
this time is practically zero. Looks like that more broad betas (of
Yukon and Whidbey) will be there in May'2004, and next beta in
August'2004
(http://www.microsoft-watch.com/article2/0,4248,1332766,00.asp).

btw, Mikael, when your new System.DirectoryServices book
(http://www.apress.com/book/bookDisplay.html?bID=265) will be out?
Amazon still says that it yet will be released? Thanks.

Best regards,
Slavo.
