Powershell in Action! Hank interviews Bruce Payette

MichaelF — Fri, 09 Feb 2007 02:00:00 GMT

We get quite a few requests to provide more information about Powershell so Hank and I decided to go straight to the person who just finished writing the book on Powershell: Powershell in Action, Bruce Payette. Bruce was one of the founders of the Powershell team here at Microsoft and is an expert on not only Powershell but according to Jeff Snover, on any number of popular and obscure languages.

In this interview Hank and Bruce discuss Powershell and Bruce gives us a demo. While we couldn't show everything here, if there is interest, we can go back and have Bruce show us specific scenarios and examples. Let us know if there is anything you'd like to see...

Check out the link above to see Bruce's book and read a couple of sample chapters.

The Windows CE team has launched a Shared Source Development Contest:

From the link: "WindowsForDevices.com and Microsoft's Mobile and Embedded Devices (MED) Group are teaming up to invite developers worldwide to compete, using Microsoft's Windows CE Shared Source, in an exciting real-world project. The contest's theme is 'Show-It-Off at the Shared Source Project Competition.'"

Hank took some time to interview the person responsible for the contest, Nic Sages, to discuss the contest and Windows CE's Shared Source efforts.
