Project Rouge? Sounds like Seven Business Edition
Flashback 2008...
MaryJo Foley of ZDNet is continuing her Microsoft "code name of the day" contest, which seems really kind of fun and a neat way to gather info. Well, today's entry is "Rouge."
Rouge? Pink? Sound related? She thinks so. Using info that she's gathered she states:
Basically, Rouge was meant to beef up Microsoft's "... family of Office Communications Server, its corporate instant-messaging/VOIP/conferencing product."
Call us crazy, but that sounds like the sort of thing we heard described to us about Seven Business Edition, with real-time document editing between multiple sources.
So is there a code-name for the supposed Media Edition? What do you get when you combine Pink and Rouge? How about Project Awesome.
