Hey Bill,
We have our VP of HR visiting us in couple of days & management’s
recommendation is to show him the TeleFun demo. I think the features we have so far are
compelling so am super excited about the opportunity, can we possibly set up a demo for day
after tomorrow for 3pm?
Hi John,
Would it be possible for you to take a build from Bill & bless it for the demo?
Thanks

Hi Bill,
I believe you already should have access to the TFS box can you actually set up
nightly builds for TeleFun at some point. I don’t mind the daily frankenstein builds but as we
get closer to production it will be much better to have daily drops. Eventually, I am hoping we
will set up BVTs and CI too…
Microsoft says Team Build is easy but still if you need my help let me know () & I
can free up some cycles… !!
Thanks

Perfection is the goal, excellence can be tolerated!!
Hi Bill & John,
I hate to put more work on you but having deployment package with
developer settings in Web.config file is prone to error, can you possibly put Staging
configuration in TeleFun.zip package?
Also one more quick point, although IIS Manager UI is really cool I would like
to be able to automate certain steps when I am setting up a fresh VM for Staging. Is
there a way I can set up the package from command line?
Thanks in advance,
Alex | Contoso Corp.
Hi Bill & John,
As you know, once we go live next week, we won’t be able to delete the
DB anymore. Have you guys tried out the Visual Studio Database Projects for
differential DB deployment. Can you quickly verify that your web packages can take
differential scripts?
Thanks in advance,
Alex | Contoso Corp.
