Windows, Trees and Trunks

Hey guys,

During my time at Microsoft, I spent about 2 years as a software developer in Windows Server 2003.  It was a fascinating experience working in such a large development.

I recently came across an old article that talks about some of that process so I thought I would share the link

http://www.winsupersite.com/reviews/winserver2k3_gold2.asp

I was the person designated from my team to attend the Windows War Room meetings - I remember quite vividly that small room in building 26 :)

About mid-way through the article, there is some discussion about how the Windows team does its source control structure.  I get a lot of questions about how to structure source control in Team Foundation Server, so this part of the article may be particularly interesting for some folks.

Thanks!

Eric.
