It appears like the Microsoft Dynamics Live Community team has gone a bit silent over the last month or so, but rest assured we are busy working behind the scenes. So what exactly have we been doing?

We are ramping up for some updates to the site that will be announced and visible during Worldwide Partner Conference (WPC) in Denver, CO in just a couple of weeks. We are diligently working on some behind the scenes platform updates that will enable us to make significant functionality changes in the future. Although you won't see any significant functionality changes in the WPC timeframe, you will see some changes in the content that is offered to you.

We are excited to be bringing to you some content which we discussed last March from The Partner Channel. We'll begin featuring this content in our Articles section. The Partner Channel magazine has wonderful articles, many of which come from former Microsoft and Great Plains employees. If you haven’t had a chance to see one of their magazines you will soon see the content here.

We are also very excited to announce a content partnership with CFO.com. We will begin featuring their "Today in Finance" column on the site enabling you to get broader look at the things you are most interested in.

In addition to the content updates, there will be some other user experience changes made to the site. Many of these changes are the results of some usability tests we did with some of you a few weeks ago. It is our hope you will enjoy these additions, we welcome any feedback you have regarding the content provided on the site or how we can make your experience even better. You can contact us any time at dlcommed@microsoft.com.

Best Regards,

Microsoft Dynamics Community Team
