Somasegar announce the change in his blog.
Those are welcome news to me. I don't want to say I told you, but I remember I suggested John Montgomery to stick to the .NET branding in a comment to his blog, back in November 2003. That was just after the PDC in which all these new technologies were announced.
The general consensus by then was that the.NET branding had been completely eroded by the various marketing mistakes Microsoft made (like adding the .NET moniker to products that did not carry the CLR).
But I told him that we developers were not that much confused and that we always got the story right.
It is nice to see that once more Microsoft does what I want ;)
