    So Visual Studio 2010 (potentially to be released in 2009), aka VS10, comes after VS-08 (which was released in 2007). No they haven't skipped a number because VS-08 was also known as VS9, so the next number is VS10. VS10 uses version 4.0 of the .net framework, which is the next one up from v3.5 which is what VS9 used by default, but could also use 2.0 or 3.0, but programs written to target v3.5 of the framework still run on v2.0 of the CLR. Is there any word from MS if VS2010 will come with a new CLR. Perhaps v3.0 of the CLR, for apps written in vs10, targeting the 4.0 framework. Or will you be able to choose CLR versions like you could with framework versions in VS9. I wonder what happens if you try writing apps to target the 2.0 framework on the 3.0 CLR. Oh, and hang on, there are also compiler versions involved here, is VS2010 going to include the 4.0 C# compiler, or will they leave it at 3.0? MS - You've screwed up your version numbers. Pick something that makes sense and stick with it -> Mess 1.0

      Perhaps it should be VS0X indicating full support for the C++0X standard. If it doesn't I won't be much interested.

        Don't get your hopes up, you need to give them at least 10 years to implement the standard after it's published. Perhaps they are on schedule for c++0x support in VS2020

          Upgrade too fast. Developers are struggling with new releases all the time to upgrade their applications but have little time to develop new apps between releases.

                Wow... Did i skip over it, or was that article entirely centered around VSTS? Another stagnant release for non-TS developers? :wtf:

                You're right. These facts that you've laid out totally contradict the wild ramblings that I pulled off the back of cornflakes packets.

                  It might be fine for a while. But without upgrade, the applications become difficult to maintain with time. The support for older development environment is disappearing.

                            Isn't that officially called C++08 or 09 now or something? The X was just a placeholder, not part of the name.

                                    1996 was a biblical one? I study the Bible and there's no mention of 1996. :) But it wouldn't surprise me if religious people extrapolated that somehow; religious people have been doing that for ages. :)

                                      What does that even mean? Does everyone stand around and vote to manage the application life cycle?

                                          Yep. That is what I am wondering, too. Never heard of any reference to the world ending in 1996.
