Evaluate OCS and OCS server 2007
I've just noticed this mail which tells me that Office Communications Server 2007 Trial Download is now available and can be found HERE This public download will include both Enterprise Edition and Standard Edition Servers. Additionally, a trial download for Office Communicator 2007 is available HERE. Initially these trials will be English only but we'll be releasing localised versions soon (Japanese, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Korean, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Brazilian Portuguese). Ryan has more information over on his blog as does Johann and James who always gets there before me - he obviously doesn't have enough to do :-)
We'd like people to evaluate the features, capabilities and scenarios delivered by these products. The code is time-bombed and 180 days. At that time you can either remove the evaluation copy or upgrade it with an appropriately licensed version of the product. There are public forums where customers can post their questions. Various communities such as MVP's and Microsoft support teams will monitor these forums as and when they can. You can also give feedback on the forums too.
I've been reminded that these bits are for Lab use only, not production. So don't forget...
