Thank you all for the reply. Especially regarding the licensing. Eka ________________________________

However the usefulness of the portal then is questionable. My licensing caveat was a general one when exposing TFS to your customers. While it is perfectly possible technically, often it fails due to a cost justification with the way the current licensing arrangements work. Many folks are not aware of the licensing implications when they first think about this approach... M. Martin Woodward. Senior Software Engineer, Microsoft MVP (Team System).

(was always my understanding).

I'd recommend using TeamPlain provided it won't expose any information they shouldn't have (i.e. for other customers). From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ekasenna Tjhauw Sent: Tuesday, 24 July 2007 11:36 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [OzTFS] Team Plain vs TFS Project Portal (SharePoint) Hi everyone, We are planning to give a demo project to one of our client. The idea is to show the client that they can also participate/collaborate in the project (i.e.. upload document, viewing work items, any high level stuff, etc) Can someone shed some light regarding the pros & cons between Team Plain and TFS Project Portal? I am currently playing with Team Plain and found it a bit cumbersome in terms of setting the security. It seems there are few overlapping with TFS, SharePoint and Team Plain in term of security. I think I miss something there, can someone please advice? Regards, Eka ________________________________ This email (including any attachments) is confidential.
