As part of our never-ending Microsoft code-name quest, we’ve got one brand-new one (and one clarification) to add to our list. It looks like Microsoft’s designated namers on the development-tool team are continuing with their “islands” code-name theme. “Rosario” is the code name for the next version of Visual Studio Team System that will be part of the “Orcas” Visual Studio 2007 wave. (Rosario is a resort on Orcas Island, for those who like the back story.) Meanwhile, “Hawaii” is a catch-all code name for features and functionality that will be incorporated into unspecified versions of Visual Studio in the post-Orcas timeframe.
