• Visual Studio Team System SolutionRoot and other Team Build properties

  Is there a reference that defines Team Build properties exposed in msbuild I don't see that any of the online or shipped docs call these out, and I see questions on MSBuild list around these too. Pointers appreciated. I found some clues in Microsoft.TeamFoundation.Build.targets so am currently trying BuildDirectory for what I want.

  After reading some posts and blog entries, I'm a little more confused as to the move from MSDN subscriptions to the new Team System entries.  Specifically this blog post: http://blogs.msdn.com/robcaron/archive/2005/04/20/410207.aspx It makes it seem like the software and MSDN subscriptions are being separated. If you have an MSDN subscription now and it gets upgraded to one of the Team System products, is the Team System licensed to you as ...Show All
