  Microsoft To Ship Windows Server 2008 In February
Time: 09:12 EST/14:12 GMT | News Source: InformationWeek | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Windows Server 2008 will release to manufacturing in February after all, Microsoft has confirmed.

The operating system is now in "escrow," a phase where the final test passes are being done on the operating system and any changes aren't taken lightly. For example, Microsoft's internal IT department recently reported a memory bug related to printing that Jim Dubois, GM of Microsoft IT, called a "show stopper;" that one's getting fixed, while other minor bugs might not be just yet.

Within a few weeks, according to Bill Laing, general manager of Windows Server development, Windows Server will enter its final stage before release; a stage Microsoft informally calls "break glass in case of emergency." At that point, the software will be only a week or two away from release to manufacturing and changes are almost unthinkable, Laing said.
