As a precaution due to a recently discovered issue both the SharePoint 2013 and Project Server 2013 Service Pack 1 (SP1) downloads have been temporarily made unavailable. I will post more information when I have it. The KB articles for Project Server 2013 and SharePoint 2013 - have been updated with: “We have recently uncovered an issue with this Service Pack 1 package that may prevent customers who have Service Pack 1 from deploying future public or cumulative updates.

As a precautionary measure, we have deactivated the download page until a new package is published.” The April Cumulative Update is due out next week, and I will be sure to cover in the Cumulative Update release what impact this issue might have, both for customers who have already loaded SP1 and those who have yet to load it..

Microsoft Project 2010. A little while ago the Project development team had the honor of meeting our makers so to say - Brian MacDonald and Jeff Lill. They're the original creators of the first version of Project for Windows which was released in 1990. They started as two local kids who grew up just a few miles from the Microsoft campus. In high school they thought it was cool how you could program little LED lights to go on and off. This fascination inspired their future in software development. They spent some time attending the University of Washington and while they were there built a spell checker app, Corrector.

Unfortunately it was the third spell checker app to the market and while InfoWorld rated it the best in the industry, they only sold 24 copies. Brian thanks his good spelling today though to having to manually enter the entire dictionary. After the spell checker app, they started working on a spreadsheet product for Macs called Crunch. It feels great! Yes, leveling was in v1. It looks great. Arpan Shah's Blog.
