Visual Studio 2008 Beta 2 Team Explorer

TL;DR; Explains the absence of Team Explorer in Visual Studio 2008 Beta 2 installation and the need to download it separately for Team Foundation Server integration.

Well, I now have Visual Studio 2008 Team Suit installed on my laptop, but I have just realized that Team Explorer is not provided as part of the installation (same as VS2005). This is irritating as now I need to download Visual Studio 2008 team Foundation Server to get the client out of it.

I think that Team Explorer should be included as an optional install for Visual Studio, this would help at work as well as we need to rationalize and package (a 2 month process) every piece of software. If Team Explorer was available as part of the installation of VS2008 then I could avoid extra hassle.

I will get back to you once I have VSTE installed…
