Office ‘14’ Technical Testing to start in fall ‘09
On the heels of news of about Office 14 being a full 64 bit release, CNET’s Ina Fried also confirms that Technical testing for the next release of Office will begin sometime this coming fall. Ina also confirms that Office 14 will be called Office 2010.
“Microsoft offered only limited details on the testing. In an interview, Office executive Rajesh Jha, who leads the Exchange team, said technology previews are more limited than public betas and typically go to hundreds of thousands more technical users as opposed to public betas, which go to millions of people and are something that "much more closely resembles a final release."
Jha said that the technology preview will include both the traditional desktop versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote as well as the browser-based "Office Web Apps" that Microsoft is building. The browser-based versions will be somewhat more limited than their desktop counterparts, but will include basic editing abilities, Microsoft has said.”
