Visual Studio 2010 and TFS 2010 beta 2 were just released on Monday and there is already an incredible amount of information available.   It is hard to keep up with all of the information.   I created a list of some of the links to posts and downloads I have found and others have tweeted about.  I’m sure I missed some.  Let me know if there are any links I missed that you want me to add to the list.

Here are the slides from my An Iteration in the Life of an Agile Team with Team System 2010 talk at the 2009 Heartland Developer Conference.  Thanks for everyone that attended.  I had a great time giving the talk and at the rest of the conference.

Thanks!
