Microsoft announced the acquisition of devBiz today at VSLive!
As part of the keynote address, Microsoft announced the acquisition of devBiz Business Solutions, a company well known for its software development tools and components for professional .NET developers.
The announcement has the biggest impact for users of Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Team System (VSTS), Microsoft’s integrated software development platform for building mission-critical applications.
And that’s because devBiz has been selling a product named TeamPlain Web Access which “is a web interface for Microsoft Team Foundation Server that allows managing work items, shared documents, reports and source control repositories.” It will be re-released as Team System Web Access as part of the Team Foundation Server Power Tools. In the meantime it is now a free download at the devBiz website which also has a FAQ on the Microsoft acquisition.
