WinFS To Be Available on Windows XP

“Microsoft is back-porting its WinFS file-system technology to Windows XP, the same way that it is doing with its Windows presentation and communications subsystems, according to company officials.

The acknowledgement is significant, given that Microsoft has been reticent to offer any details on WinFS since the company decided in August to cut the WinFS information storage and retrieval feature from both the client and server versions of Longhorn.”

If they can’t release LongHorn with WinFS, it’s odd how the can do it with WinXP. It will be interesting for sure. Check out the article at Microsoft-Watch.
