New Vista Build

L

Leo

/Microsoft is slated to make available to a selected group of testers a
new build of Windows Vista this week.
This isn't the mega-Community-Technology-Preview (CTP) release that
originally was expected in April.

Build 5365 is a much more modest interim build that will include a
number of interface tweaks, performance tuning and other sundry
enhancements.

Microsoft says it is still on track for the consumer CTP to hit in the
second quarter. Microsoft watchers are expected that build to hit next
month.

Yeh, we've heard about this... but still can't confirm whether it's 5365 or
not. I guess we'll just have to wait and see :blush:)
I'm already there - spare computer in our server room ready to go for the
new build... and our new 8MB broadband should certainly help an awful lot!
:blush:D

Applied but still waiting to be accepted for the Vista Beta Testing group.
Can't wait to be able to play and help make it even better.

No
MSDN is where you need to send your complaints since no one here can help
you.
What has MSDN said when you asked?

Yeh I've just seen this as well in the beta newsgroups/bink.nu.
Aye, I guess we'll have to hold off for another few days :blush:)

To be fair though Andre, the speculation usually amounts to *something*. Not
sure if it's just good guess work, but they were right in saying it's going
to be a build very close to 5365, and that it's going to be released soon.
Also the "speculation" with bug-fixes... that could well be guess work, but
hey, they weren't 100% wrong ;o)

Be prepared for KP to rant again, MSdn subs, and some testers will not be
included again.

wow.

It looks like only the TAP Beta Tester's will get Build 5365 (which got
released to them on Monday). A different CTP or CPP Release will get
Released to Eveyone else either Later This Month or Sometime Next Month when
Beta 2 comes out.

Kevin John Panzke

It looks like Build 5365 is only going to be Released to the TAP Beta
Tester's (who are Under an NDA for any TAP Beta Releases), so it looks like
we won't be seeing Build 5365 Screenshot's anytime soon, that is unless it
also gets Released to the Technical Beta Tester's as well (which means that
the TAP Beta NDA would no longer apply).

Kevin John Panzke

P.S. As long as they Deny the new 5365 Build to the Technical Beta
Tester's, they (Microsoft) will not have a problem with me, otherwise I will
call MSDN to complain that we should be getting it as well (as well as Build
5342).

Let's just wait and see first shall we? :blush:)
