We haven't received the release yet (Still on beta 2) but I assume it's due some time as we have MSDN Universal (that said we haven't had an official release of XP yet either... MSDN isn't half as reliable as it used to be). VS.NET uses a binary format for its project files... I assume there's some kind of upgrade path but there's little chance of being able to manage these in CVS, and there's obviously no downgrade. This fact alone has actually led to a comapany wide decision not to adopt VS.NET where I work... I'm not even allowed to install it in case it upgrades something and screws up the development tree (We got burned with the Access 97/Access 2000 switch which nearly cost us an entire release - someone installed Access 2000 and viewed some critical databases with it, rendering them unusable).
