Still no official roadmap for SharePoint 2007
04-Jun-2007 --
Almost 6 months after its initial launch, Microsoft has still not issued clear plans nor direction for future releases of MOSS 2007. After being burned on Longhorn and other much-discussed future products, we can almost understand Microsoft's hesitation here. But MOSS is now out in the world, and inasmuch as it remains a friendlier tool for integrators than licensees, a lack of future direction brooks higher than normal risk for buyers, particularly given the worldwide dearth of truly experienced MOSS 2007 consultants. You can find much product information online (e.g., on security, scaling limits), but in general the documentation remains poor. The recently updated Enterprise Portals Report has many new details, including the real story on poor support for basic web standards, such as XHTML and accessibility.
