Whats the latest and greatest version of Team Foundation Server?

Hey all,

I just want to know what is the latest and greatest version of Team Foundation Server that was released to date. I only have option to download the Trial Edition from my MSDN subscription; is it as same as RTM And how can I get the real version instead of trial version

Thanks for your help.

    Thanks Bill for your reply. Looks like I need to buy it separately. I'm going to check out the links shortly.

    Thanks a lot for your descriptive and helpful reply.  I just hope that upgrade from Trial to RTM goes smoothly :)

    Thanks again,

    Note the product has released to RTM. The Workgroup version allows for up to 5 simultaneous users. It is associated with the Team Edition and Team Suite versions of MSDN.

    The full version of TFS won't be posted on MSDN, you have to buy it separately.

    Rob Caron has good posts explaining the status on his blog at: http://blogs.msdn.com/robcaron/archive/2006/03/18/554670.aspx and:http://blogs.msdn.com/robcaron/archive/2006/03/16/553121.aspx

    Hope this info helps.

    Sunny,

    Just to add some information, when the RTM version is released, you will only need to run your current trial install in "maintenance" mode and upgrade the product key. It will not be an "upgrade" in the sense that Beta 3 to RTM was, the bits are the same.

    Thanks,

    The latest and greatest is the RTM, but that is exactly where its at right now, released to manufacture. The Trial and Workgroup are available through download and I think that the full version is having all of the manufacturing stuff going on and should be available in the next couple of weeks (at least this is what the MSFT people have said). I think their advice has been to install the trial and upgrade when the final version has been released. Additionally, the full version will have to be bought outside of your msdn account and purchased through a reseller or microsoft.
