The Windows SDK Team is asking for feedback

By Koby Kahane

The team responsible for shipping the Windows SDK at Microsoft is asking for feedback about what developers would like to see in future releases. This is mentioned here and here. If, like me, you would like to see support for using MSVCRT.DLL with the new Visual C++ compilers included as an official feature in the Windows SDK, you should let them know. With the .NET Framework SDK now a part of the Windows SDK, I hope what’s formerly a part of the Platform SDK, for native developers, is not left behind.
