I;m resuming my Microsoft Code Name each day series that I began in December 2006. The objective: To give the back again story, each and every day in August,Office 2010 Home And Business (http://www.office2010key.us/), on one of Microsoft;s myriad code names. Some of these code names could possibly be familiar to Microsoft watchers; others (hopefully) will probably be brand-new.Microsoft code names give some wonderful clues about the Redmondians’ development priorities, to not point out a better knowing of which long term Microsoft products fit collectively, from a strategy standpoint. And not every single item group is shifting to dull, numbered codenames (like Windows seven and Office 14).Without additional ado, let the codename games start.Microsoft
code name
of the day:
TolestoMicrosoft code identify with the day: TolestoBest guess on what it's: The “core” subset of Microsoft;s Common Language Runtime (CLR)Meaning/context with the code title: Tolesto is one of three moons that orbit Saturn. (I wonder whether Microsoft has codename plans for the other two,Office Pro Plus 2007 (http://www.office2007key.ca), Calypso and Tethys.) one of 48 named moons orbiting Saturn. (Thanks for the reader who sent in the latest NASA link.) If the Core CLR is Tolesto, perhaps the full CLR is Saturn? And Silverlight is the ring around Saturn…? Coincidentally (or not) there are a couple other past and present Microsoft codenames among the 48 moons,Office 2007 Pro (http://www.office2007key.in), too,Office Professional 2007 (http://www.office2007key.in), including Janus and Titan.Back tale: AT Mix ‘07, Microsoft acknowledged that it was embedding a subset of the CLR in Silverlight, its Windows Presentation Foundation/Everywhere browser plug-in designed to compete with Adobe Flash. Because the Silverlight plug-in is designed to run on not only Microsoft platforms, but also on Safari and Mozilla browsers on Mac OS X and Linux,Windows 7 Starter (http://www.key-windows-7.de/), too, the CLR can now legitimately be called “cross-platform.”More info: The Core CLR will include the garbbage collection, type system, generics and many of the other key features that are part of the CLR on the desktop. It won;t include COM interop support and other features “that you don;t need inside a browser,” according to Microsoft.Got a Microsoft code title you’ve been wondering about? Send it my way and I’ll do my best to track down some leads on what it may possibly be.And if you want to keep track of the full month;s worth of Microsoft code names I end up posting, bookmark this “Microsoft Codenames” page. You can also check out this video-whiteboard I did recently on Microsoft codenames.
