I don't know if anyone noticed, but the version numbers between SP2/R2SP1 and 
2016 are exactly the same, 5.0.8239.1000.  So, yea, I can kinda agree with 
Robert, at least at this stage, it seems like a service pack.  Because it 
likely is.  There are some differences, like on the auto client upgrade page, 
and a couple of other places, but by and large seems mostly the same at this 
point.

I am not aware of any information having been published on that apart from that 
the datacentre product will be brought closer to Intune in terms of release 
cycles

I thought SP2 was for Win10 support and get us by until 2016 version is ready 
to go?  There is another update coming in 2016 as well?  Maybe we need to go 
pound the connect board with some new feature requests?

Keep in mind the that ConfigMgr Vnext RTM will be available later this year for 
and that another release (let's called it R2) will be available with Windows 
Server Vnext next year ;)
This year release will be focused on MDM enhancements and minimum (yet 
sufficient) support for Windows 10 (ie upgrade etc). Next release will add more 
depth for the Windows 10 Ecosystem :)

So I installed SCCM 2016, played around with it and can say I've never been so 
underwhelmed by a new product release.  I understand it's a preview, but I 
can't see what else they can throw in there that is going to really make this 
feel like  a new product release. There is nothing super new about it, it feels 
like a service pack and that's it.  It seems to me that since they were 
releasing a new version of System Center they had to also release a new version 
of SCCM, so they just threw something together to say here you go, we have a 
new version.  This sort of confirms to me MS is totally focusing on Intune for 
some reason I still can't totally figure out.

What do others think?

Rob
