P&P Summit Day One: Generating Skeleton Baseline Architectures

The last talk of the day was given by David Trowbridge and Mark Groves. This session was on creating skeleton baseline architectures, but really seemed to be a “see what’s coming with Orcas and Team Architect edition of VS”. They showed how some of the new design tools in the upcoming Orcas release would include some top down design tools. It was neat to see, but I’m wondering about the real world usage of it.

One thing I did get out of this is that the P&P group, MSF, and the VS.Net Architect edition people are now all in the same organization within MS. Interesting grouping that I think will yield some good results.

Not much else I can say about this one…I was pretty dazed at this point due to the time zone change.
