I had the pleasure to attend the SharePoint Conference 2009 recently. SharePoint 2010 is truly exciting. Here are some notes:
Fun Facts:
7400 attendees
160 partners
250 sessions
7.5 miles of cable used for wireless network across the conference center!
Mandalay Bay conference center has more than 1.7 million sq ft of meeting space
Average walking during the conference? 57 miles (During some IBM conference at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in 2007, one attendee wore a pedometer and found that she walked about 93 km)
Re-branding
MOSS is Microsoft SharePoint 2010 (disassociated with Office)
WSS is SharePoint Foundation
Groove is SharePoint Workspace
BDC is BCS (Business Connectivity Services)
Notable new features
Improved developer productivity with VS 2010 and SP 2010 integration

Better logs
Several architecture changes
Personal Sites Improvements

STSADM obsolete - PowerShell in
Service Oriented Architecture in – SSP is history
SSP – share across web apps in a farm
