Oslo news from TechEd

During the Bill Gates keynote here at TechEd, and during Oliver Sharp's presentation on Microsoft's vision and strategy for Connected Systems, it was announced that there will be a public community technology preview (CTP) of *some* of the Oslo stack at PDC this fall. This is the first public announcement of any kind of release dates.

Before you get too excited, remember that Oslo is a very ambitious and far-reaching project. What will be released in the fall will likely only be step down that path, an early look at a few parts that will become part of a much bigger picture.

However, all journeys begin with a single step :)
