Yes, any new functionality which is listed in the new and noteworthy which is in the clients (Visual Studio, Eclipse, or command lines) will require an update of the clients.
The only forcing client adoption is if teams start versioning symbolic links, clients for the teams that load those files will need to be updated. However, if you don't need the new features in the UIs of the clients (eg, configuring new process rules, etc..) then client updates are not required at all. Cheers, Jean-Michel |

How about the other part of the question - is any of that new functionality invisible to 2.0.0.0 clients (and I am specifically thinking of the new approvals functionality)? thanks anthony |
