We have the following scenario:
Is there something wrong with how we’re doing version control?
I work with a team of programmers as the business analyst. We just released version 2.0 of our product and are working on the next version to be released in 3 months (it’s an internal software product). Unfortunately version 2.0 has some issues that they have had to fix and we’re going to deploy those fixes in a couple weeks. The problem is that we also don’t want to deploy the changes that are still being worked on and are not slated to be released for another 3 months.

We are a .Net/Windows shop, and I don’t see any really good tools for Windows for generating the files that are to be dropped in patch or hotfix. We are currently using TFSBuild 2010 with Windows Workflows for our continuous integration builds as well as our daily full build which includes an Installshield package for deployment.
How to use TFS as a query tracking system?
We already use tfs for managing defects in code etc, etc. We additionally need a way to “understand the domain & requirements of the products”. Normally, without tfs we exchange emails with the consultants and have the questions/queries answered. If it is a feature implementation we sometimes “find” conflicts in the implementation itself. And when that happens the userstory is modified and the enhancement/bug as per that is raised in TFS.
How to access / query Team Foundation Server 2012 with Odata?
I’ve tried to find a solution for this for hours now, and I’m getting the same results in the end, asking me to install a lot of Azure and other stuff, plus running some example project .sln that I can’t open with my 2012 version of Visual Studio.
