SIMS Autumn 2010 update

[broc]

Any idea when this will become available?

[creese]

Two or 3 weeks after the official release date.

The 2010 deployment guide mentions november/december 2010.
but that could change.

The summer release isn't even out yet!

The reason I was asking about the Autumn release is I understand that this needs SQL 2008..... I was trying to work out when we would need to do the upgrade. If I could delay upgrading SQL until after Nov 1st it becomes someone elses problem

I'm certain that would be possible. No reason why You can't delay until then.

"What SIMS Versions are Supported for the SQL
Migration?

The SQL 2008 migration can be carried out on live systems from the SIMS
2009 Autumn Main Release until the SIMS 2010 Autumn Main Release.

When Should I do my Migration?

Support for SIMS on SQL 2008 begins in October 2009 for live systems.
Between October 2009 and October 2010, support will be provided for SIMS
on both SQL 2005 and SQL 2008. Support for SIMS on SQL 2005 will end in

October 2010. All SIMS (and FMS) databases must be migrated by this time."
