***Update: Today Microsoft is releasing as out-of-band security update to address this issues.

- SharePoint Team Blog Announcement – http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sharepoint/

I’m sure by now all of you have heard about the ASP.NET security vulnerability and there are plenty of references out there about it and how to fix it so I’m not going to go into much detail here.  The key point is yes, it effects WSS 2.0, SharePoint 2007 (WSS 3.0 and MOSS) and SharePoint 2010 (Foundation and Server).

The best references I have found so far, and I will refer you to rather than writing it all up myself are":

1. The Microsoft SharePoint Team Blog, this is where the fixes are documented that you can put in place until a patch is released.

2. Scott Guthrie’s Blog, this contains a very good list of FAQs about the vulnerability.

For those of you with a TechNet subscription and an itching desire to download the Office 2010 Suite of products, they are now here!! I’m sure every other blogger is writing this same post so I won’t make it long.  The RSS feed for the released products is here: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/subscription-downloads.rss if you want direct links to the downloads, here they are:

That is everything I currently see on TechNet.  They are all English versions and please, no one comment and tell me I have the wrong names.  I realize the names above don’t all match up to the new names that Microsoft announced when it comes to SharePoint.  I just copied the names directly from the TechNet site.

Unfortunately, I was unable to attend the SharePoint conference this year. However, I have been trying to follow it all day via twitter and the #SPC2009 hash tag. There have been a ton of tweets and with the tweets and the amount of people a lot of duplicates. As tweets have been going out all day I’ve tried to capture new blog posts about the 2010 stack and am attempting to put together a good list of blog posts that I’ve have noticed today (and continue to notice throughout the week). Feel free to send me any blog posts I have missed or you would like me to add to my site. So, here they are:
