I had not checked the site for a while, but my Microsoft Techdays session on Lab Management is now available as a video I cannt make it embed here, some Community Server issue I assume, so look for it on the developer track on the second day.

I will, in the end, move these over to VS2010 and hence upgrade their build formats to the new 2010 workflow based one, but for now it would be nice to be able to run them with the minimum of effort.
