Since Covast has been left for dead by Microsoft, I need to evaluate R2 to determine whether to re-implement our BizTalk system in 2006 R2 or whether to move to another translator entirely.
Last I saw, R2 was in a beta, but is now not available. Does anyone know if it is available through MSDN, in which case I can have our licensee retrieve it for me, or do I need to contact the sales rep to get an evaluation copy?
Is it officially RTM, and if not, when will it be?
Thanks in advance,
– weak architect

I think the current plan is for RTM of BizTalk R2 in July to September of 2007 (Q3).
I have head some talk of a public Beta Program or a Technical Preview release that would give access to beta code sooner – but I have not heard any dates on that.

A Beta1 is out now, but it may only be for TAP customers as it's on the Microsoft Connect site, not MSDN. Stephen got the target dates right for RTM.

Right, there was one for TAP customers on Connect, but the program has closed. Basically they are not accepting any more applicants to preview the software.
As this is quite some time away and also not available, it will not be a consideration for evaluation, but it should be a decent quality release, given the amount of time that is being devoted to testing.
