All WHS projects stopped

by fkollmann 5/7/2010 12:52:21 PM

As a consequence of changing my private project focus all currently active and already inactive WHS v1 projects have been stopped. This includes the following projects:

  • Codename “Umbrella”
  • Router Control
  • Windows Home Server on Facebook
  • Volunteer

Currently no WHS v2 versions are planned and as along as Microsoft does not include an open add-in store there won’t be any future releases.

Sorry to all who are disappointed by this and those who have been long-time companions on my WHS adventures esp. to Christopher (HSB), Alexander (HSB) and Alex (HSL). Special thanks to those who are dedicated to the WHS community and made this adventure possible: Terry (WGS) and Martin (HSB). Finally I want to thank Microsoft for providing an existing product and all the sponsors of the Windows Home Server Add-on Challenge 09.

PS: If someone is interested in continuing one of the projects, please drop me a mail.

Windows Home Server on Facebook CTP1 released

by fkollmann 3/2/2010 7:55:49 PM

I am happy to announce the first sneak peak on the first Facebook integration with the Microsoft Windows Home Server out there.

Please keep in mind that this is a preview and there is still a lot of work to do but installing this version will provide valuable data on determining the direction of the project.
