Microsoft shipped Release Candidate Zero (RC0) of Windows Server 2008 this week. ScottGu notes that this also means that they've shipped RC0 of IIS7. Wait a minute - so what's this web server that shipped with Vista back at the end of last year? It claims to be Internet Information Services Version 7.0.6000.16386. But if IIS7 has only just reached release candidate... I guess it must just be the IIS7 Community Technology Preview or something. That explains why the management interface for it has been so utterly useless - it's not finished yet!
