VMware Studio 2.0 – Public Beta Out Next Monday!

The latest installment of the VMware Coffee Talk Webinars was today, covering off the soon to be released VMware Studio 2.0. But the amount of change and feature enhancements that have gone into this new version, it could seriously skip a few numbers and go straight to 6.0 or something – it’s a _massive_ release, and I’m simply astounded at the amount of excellent thought and work that has gone into the product. All while remaining completely free of charge.

But rather than me write about it here, you really should go view the webex yourselves (pdf’s available now, webex recording available soon) – it really will be worth your while. My fears of a developer focused Eclipse interface have been destroyed – anyone with a modicum of intelligence (ie anyone reading this will find their way around it easily.

One thing I will mention here though, is an amusing fail by my distinguished VMware SE, Rob. I was taunting him about the abundance of donuts in the office today via private chat, however Rob replied to ‘All Participants’ instead of just to me. In case the transcript of the webex doesn’t make it online, here are the entries in all their glory:

June 24, 2009 9:34:02 AM from Rob Upham
to All Participants: Stop. You’re making me hungry.

June 24, 2009 9:34:17 AM from Rob Upham
to All Participants: Donuts are made from animals, ya know!

June 24, 2009 9:34:43 AM from Pablo Roesch
to All Participants: what kind of donuts are we talking about here ?

June 24, 2009 9:34:54 AM from Rob Upham
to All Participants: Sorry everyone – that should’ve been private(!)

June 24, 2009 9:35:06 AM from Stuart Radnidge
to All Participants: busted!

June 24, 2009 9:35:16 AM from Stuart Radnidge
to All Participants: but to answer your question, krispy kreme of course

June 24, 2009 9:35:20 AM from Pablo Roesch
to All Participants: private donuts are cool

Sorry Rob, but I really did think that was funny
