|

I saw in the nfo section that Visual Studio 2005 professional has been released. Can someone write which are the different versions of Visual Studio 2005 and the one that has the most features? Thanks

There are 3 editions:
1) Team Suite
2) Role-based team edition
3) Professional edition
Team suite being the most expensive.

It is never a matter of what you REALLY need or not. It is more about getting the biggest and greatest version of it....
Like Visual Studio .NET 2003 Enterprise Architect, that was the only one for me...

Anybody knows if the professional edition released by ZWTISO includes the MSDN documentation?

I am not sure if it does as I have not installed and tested yet. However there were a "MSDN for Visual Studio 2005" a few days ago.

ZWTISO release has a directory named MSDN. The size of the folder's contents as reported by Windows' folder properties is 1.55GB (1.67 Gbytes). I haven't install it yet so I don't know if it is the full MSDN.
There was a "MSDN Library For Visual Studio 2005" released by JUSTISO and its nfo file says that it "... provides access to over 1.8GB of comprehensive programming information ..." With the size difference, I don't know if the MSDN folder from VS2005 is the same or different from the MSDN Library by JUSTISO.
Does anyone know that can clearify this??

The sizes on MSDN for final versions are:
MSDN Library for Visual Studio 2005 - DVD (English) named en_msdn_vs_2005_dvd.iso is 1595 MB in size.
Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition - DVD - (English) named en_vs_2005_pro_dvd.iso is 2760 MB in size.
Visual Studio 2005 Standard Edition - DVD - (English) named en_vs_2005_std_dvd.iso is 2672 MB in size.
Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Software Architects - DVD - (English) named en_vs_2005_vsta_dvd.iso is 3617 MB in size.
So I would assume anything equal or larger than Standard edition would contain the MSDN Library for Visual Studio 2005.

I'm pretty sure all the editions are final now, but unfortunately only Professional has seen a release. I'm waiting for Team Suite final before I download anything. Hopefully somebody will do it when VS hits stores in a few days. Damn you MSDN users!

Is there a difference between Team Edition for Software Developers and Team Edition for Software Architects? And on the MSDN version comparison page it says Team System, and the WinBeta release was called Team Suite, which one is which?

On MSDN there isn't a standalone version of Team Edition for Software Developers. But:
"Visual Studio 2005 Team System (Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition for Software Architects - DVD - 2005-10-27 19:10:46)
The new Visual Studio Team System expands significantly on Microsoft’s demonstrated successes in delivering highly productive tools, by offering businesses tightly integrated and extensible lifecycle tools to increase the predictability of their software development process.
With Visual Studio Team System, organizations can:
Reduce the complexity of delivering modern service-oriented solutions that are designed for operations
Facilitate collaboration among all members of a software team, speeding development time and ensuring the predictability and reliability of the development process
Customize and extend the Team System with their own internal tools and process frameworks, or choose from over 450 supplemental products from over 190 partners
Visual Studio Team System consists of:
Visual Studio Team Foundation Server, an extensible team collaboration server that enables all members of the extended IT team to effortlessly manage and track the progress and health of projects
Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Architects, visual designers that enable architects, operations managers, and developers to design service-oriented solutions that can be validated against their operational environments
Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Developers, advanced development tools that enable teams to build reliable, mission-critical services and applications
Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Testers, advanced load testing tools that enable teams to verify the performance of applications prior to deployment
Visual Studio Team Suite, bundle of Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Architects, Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Developers, and Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Testers
Proven process guidance, prescriptive architectural guidance, and solution accelerators that assist organizations in improving the predictability and reliability of delivering mission-critical solutions"
So either they have ripped out parts of the Team Suite and re-released them as seperate editions: [X] Yes [ ] No
Or they have exclusive access to internal Microsoft builds: [ ] Yes [X] No
I'll let you decide.

I'm surprised nobody's done the full team suite yet... Would that be massive (10gb or so, since it has TESA, TESD and TEST in it) or would it just be around 3.6gb (around the same size as the TESD release by ZWT) like the WinBeta release?

It's still a single DVD: 3.54 GB ISO, but includes all the team editions as well as MSDN and the VS Tools for Office and Visual SourceSafe.
