Nice to see Soma again on Channel 9. The new technologies, such as Azure, Windows 7 and all the advancements in the languages and tools is awesome. I hope that we always get the possibility to give feedback to the people in the teams so that the tools are shaped more and more around the developers.

Amazing to hear from you about the new technologies. I am amazed at the cool stuff your division is putting out. I love DevDiv for the transparency and focus on customers you have instilled.

Thanks
