At the same time, I'm working on a project that will generate KB articles from the very very hot issues occurs recently. I believe, after a pilot period, this project will run successfully.

I have read your comments on the blogs published several days ago, I'm much encouraged by you. As we scheduled, I will provide the KB articles lists for Windows Server related product every Tuesday. Please just tell me what you would like us to share in the blogs.
