Key points

* We will have a store of guidance as web pages on guidancelibrary.com and msdn wiki
* We will have a store of guidance as xml files on guidancelibrary.com
* All xml library clients will point to guidancelibrary.com content (GE offline, VS Addin)
* New items will be authored on guidancelibrary.com and must be duplicated as xml and wiki page
* Items, once scrubbed/tested, will be pushed to MSDN
* Items can have the following status
* Beta – still in progress
* Community release – final form is on GL.com, never going to MSDN
* Release – final form is on GL.com and MSDN

Need

* A process for publishing xml items to GL.com
* GE and VS addin must be able to point at online xml store and get libraries
* Point to a library.xml file
* Library.xml points to view xml files
* Views point at items
* For perf reasons we get items just in time
* If library.xml is newer online grab just that file
* When opening a view, if view.xml online is newer grab just that file
* When opening an item, it item.xml online is newer then grab just that file
