Since the announcement of the release and Global Availability (GA) of BizTalk Server 2006 R2, there have been questions about how to get different versions of the product. 


 


To clarify, here are some links to the latest:


 


%u00b7         Evaluation (LIVE) – http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/bb738071.aspx


%u00b7         MSDN Subscription for DEV (Live) – http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/default.aspx (must sign in)


%u00b7         Customers with SA (LIVE) – https://licensing.microsoft.com/eLicense/L1033/Default.asp (must sign in)


%u00b7         New Customers (LIVE) – On the price list currently. 


You can get the price list by working with your Microsoft representative (sales) or partner. 


 


As you can see, only the R2 Developer edition and Evaluation edition bits are posted to MSDN.  Customers who would like to download any other editions such as Branch or Enterprise should do so from the Microsoft Volume Licensing (MSVL) site.
