How do I download the videos?
- To download, right click the file type you would like and pick “Save target as…” or “Save link as…”
Why should I download videos from Channel9?
- It's an easy way to save the videos you like locally.
- You can save the videos in order to watch them offline.
- If all you want is to hear the audio, you can download the MP3!
Which version should I choose?
- If you want to view the video on your PC, Xbox or Media Center, download the High Quality WMV file (this is the highest quality version we have available).
- If you'd like a lower bitrate version, to reduce the download time or cost, then choose the Medium Quality WMV file.
- If you have a Zune, WP7, iPhone, iPad, or iPod device, choose the low or medium MP4 file.
- If you just want to hear the audio of the video, choose the MP3 file.
Right click “Save as…”
- Mid Quality WMV (Lo-band, Mobile)
- WMV (WMV Video)
Eric Deily, program manager on the IIS 7 team, talks about some of the things that excite him about IIS 7. IIS (Internet Information Services) is Microsoft's Web server. He says "bbbbwwwwaaaacccchhhhh" to the point that IIS isn't secure.
The IIS.Resources.com site is tracking IIS 7 details here. Damon Gentry, on his blog, says IIS 7 will totally rock.
Speaking of which, Eric will be at the PDC, and says the IIS team has a ton of content planned. Oh, and the early bird pricing has been extended to July 30.

Well, it seems like there's a serious lull in C9 videos. Checking the RSS feed has not yielded any new videos for awhile. Just a few here and there.
It's fine if you're taking a break with the videos (or cutting down on the frequency), but just give us a little heads-up, OK?
I'd like to see some videos of the ordinary folk on campus - Janitors, electricians, etc.
some maintenance guys
Or do PMs clean the place up?
What did you say, Scoble was a MVP? Opps, well get him first then.
Sorry about the misleading headline.
From all of the videos I've seen, everyone there is a Project Manager.
I'm sure there's a PM of Sanitation there
But to stay on topic, IIS7 looks pretty sweet. And you can't say these Microsoft folks don't look stoked
same exact thing here =o)
According to the video: IIS will be componentised. No need to apply a pach to a component if you do not have it installed. Nice isn't it? Less downloading of paching, less deployment.
Wrong. When I installed XP SP2 on my computer I did not have IIS installed. After some months I needed IIS and so I went on and installed. And I was wondering to myself: Do I need to re-install SP2 now? Or has SP2 somehow already placed the updates needed for IIS. Or has it not and my computer will get infected the minute I install IIS. The answer to this question is not even now clear.
So, how is the team going to face this issue. Will we need to reply all previous paches after we install a new component. Or will paches become even more confusing listing not only the Windows version, service packs, applications, etc, tehy apply to, but all to what component they exactly should be applied.
How is this problem going to be fixed. In any way it is fixed, please inform clearly the user at installation unlike nowadays.
For the record, I've never interviewed a Project Manager. My first video was with someone from QA and my second was with a developer (in the pipeline now). My third (which I'll be filming soon) is with a developer as well.
PM's are just good at giving overviews on things.
Sampy, do you have the links to the videos you have done? I don't recall ever seeing any.
It is also true that if you apply a service pack, then uninstall and reinstall a service, in this case IIS, you do not need to reapply the service pack. However, you may need reapply hotfixes.
To answer the question of how can you tell, you can always run Windows Update or Microsoft Security Baseline Analyzer to report on the updates you need.
While Windows Update, Security Analyzer, WUS, and other improvements have made patching eaiser, there is still a lot of work to do and is no substitute for releasing rock sold products that don't need much in terms of patching. IIS 6 is a big step in the right directioon and we're working very hard to ensure that IIS 7 meets or exceeds that.
