It’s out, the dirty secret… prolonged for so much time is out… Visual Studio 2008 RTM has been released!

(in case your wondering… sarcasm)

But anyway, do you plan to start using it?

One great thing about it is that it supports .NET 2.0 projects, now if they only hadn’t gone and s…w it out with .NET 2.0 SP1!

How do you plan to handle it?

My plan is on the current project to just place it on VS2008 (new Studio has some obvious benefits as described in ScottGu’s blog) and try with this great idea (via FxCop) to continue building against for vanilla .NET 2.0:

Did you try it? Do you, and how do you plan to guide your department towards the new Studio?
