I retired from personal blogging in July 2008.

Alex sent me the heads up that WinFS was no longer a Vista feature. It was in Longhorn, and then just after Longhorn.
WinFS was one of the most anticipated features of Vista. Simply it was a Relational File System. This was to change the way we access our information.
The WinFS technologies get split into SQL Server and ADO.Net. There is now NO relational file system on the horizon.
Doesn’t this sound exactly like Exchange and Kodiak.
The delivery of the message sparked another thread. We come to bury WinFS.
Update: Jonsie gets the significance.
