Disclaimer The opinions expressed herein are my own personal opinions and do not represent my employer's view in anyway.
Note: All of the addresses of the KB / Articles - 2007 Products / MS / Non-MS Articles below were valid at the time I added them to the WSS FAQsite and to this file. I can't guarantee that they still are.
(This is also posted to the WSS newsgroup at microsoft.public.sharepoint.windowsservices - web access via http://www.microsoft.com/technet/community/newsgroups/server/sharepoint.mspx)
(Items are added to the WSS FAQ throughout the week so you will find new items more quickly by checking at wss.collutions.com or www.wssfaq.com daily.)
From 17th - 25th February 2008
NOTE: Amendment to KB articles: Microsoft are now not amending the date of a KB article if the change made is marked as a version point change (so from 2.2 to 2.3 for instance). This ought to mean that the amendment made is cosmetic rather than important as important text changes ought to result in a major version change (such as from 2.2 to 3.0).Because of this change and to avoid unnecessary effort I will in future not amend the listings in the WSS FAQ sites if only a minor version change has taken place.I will continue to amend both the date and version numbers of major version changes and of course will continue to add all relevant new KB articles that my RSS feeds and other sources give me.
Special Note: I was away between 20th and 24th of February and was unexpectedly without a computer and time to use anyone elses. So KB and other articles from that period will be added to the WSS FAQ sites during the week and will be included in the next posting here on Saturday. I felt there was too much here to wait another 5 days for ...
