MSDN Docs Updated for July
Of all the great things we did with the product in 2010, one area I was surprised and pleased by is how far our documentation came thanks to the heroics of Howie Hilliker. Howie has been busy since we shipped, continuing to beef up the MSDN documentation. We get regular updates to the docs through “continuous publication”, or CPub, and we recently dropped the July updates on the site.
