Welcome to Project Glidepath 2.0

The release of Windows Vista is creating a new wave of demand for applications. Combining the hundreds of new features and thousands of new APIs added to Windows Vista with starting and keeping a MicroISV business running is a formidable challenge. We at Microsoft want to help make it easier for you to be successful. Project Glidepath, an Microsoft evangelism initiative, provides you the step-by-step instructions for everything from how to get started with Windows Presentation Foundation to how to write and publish a press release. Project Glidepath delivers the workflow-based guidance, sample code, content and custom tools you need to create successful applications for Windows Vista including .Net 3.0 right inside Visual Studio 2005.

Project Glidepath includes:

The Project Glidepath Repository Manager - a freely available VS2005 add-in that provides a platform for delivering guidance, content, custom tools and templates for building applications for Windows Vista including .NET 3.0.

A web-based repository of software factories and packages containing workflow-based guidance regarding all aspects of being in the software business. This includes everything you need regarding the technical and non-technical aspects of starting and succeeding as a MicroISV. The Project Glidepath Repository Manager downloads this over an RSS feed right to your development workstation. Being RSS-based means you can synchronize with the master repository on a regular basis for updates and new additions.
