Groove: News update

Although it is known some time that there is going to be a close bundling between the MS Office suite, Sharepoint Sites and Groove here is a quick update.

• The name will change to "Office Groove 2007".
• It will be the official Sharepoint Site client to perform offline availability and it is also planned to support check-in and check-out functionality.
• Integration with Infopath.
• Office Groove Server 2007 will bundle the now available different server editions (maybe then on a MSDN account available :) )
  

If you want to connect a bunch of people, rapidly and secure in a Windows environment than just give it a try. There is a free test edition available and you can purchase a Sharepoint offsite licence today.

In my opinion Groove is still rocking.
