[RESOLVED] Differences between VS2010 RC and RTM?

Anyone know of any mentionable differences between the RC and RTM versions of Premium?

Tried looking on google to see if there is a list that says...but couldnt find anything.

If you are asking this question because you plan on just continuing to use the RC rather than buying the RTM version, the RC will expire on June 30 2010.

Also, just curious, why are you linking to that forum spamming software in your signature?

Its SEO software. can be used for whatever. I knew you would comment, since I saw you on my site.

as for the question, I was downloading the ISO from ms, and now waiting for it to install...was just curious what was different.

Applications created with the RC cannot be deployed without a special license, which Microsoft will no longer be issuing given that the RTM has dropped.

Ah, thats kind of cool. So after the June 30th date, RC/beta versions wont be allowed to be deployed. Thats pretty cool.

I was mainly more so concerned of features/additions to the RTM vs RC. But thanks. :)

"Can be used for whatever"? Looks to me like it only has one use.

No, after that date the betas and RC will cease to function. Applications created with them are not allowed to be deployed at all, on any date, without a Go Live license from Microsoft.

Exactly - what else can you use it for apart from spamming blogs/articles/forums ?
It also seems a bit of a coincidence that I have never had any spam on my blog and since posting in this thread yesterday I now have 1254 spam comments...
EDIT: and in the 30 seconds it took me to delete those 1254 spam comments, I've already got another 20!

! Ban him. Or use CAPTCHA.

(Based on the assumption that you created the blog by yourself, which I usually do, but looking back, I think it's wrong.)
