Sharepoint Web Part for VSTS Work Item Maintenance

Hi,
I understand that adding, updating etc work items for VSTS is not currently supported in the Sharepoint Team Site for a project. Does anyone know about any third party web parts available to achieve this.

Thanks
JW

I'm not aware of any 3rd party web parts that do this currently, but I can see this being a potential future product or open source project. Since TFS is web services based, creating such a web part would simply require someone to write a web part to talk to the TFS web service in order to retrieve and update work items.

Thanks Eric
FYI information I have put in suggestion at the MSDN product feedback centre. I would have thought this was a natural evolution/enhancement to the product and would really benefit users in my workplace.

There are some 3rd party add ons in this space being developed but I don't believe any have been announced yet. We'll put some links on our MSDN developer center when they are public.

Thankyou very much. Any idea of time frames for third party components? Also do you have a view on whether this functionality will be supplied 'out of the box' by Microsoft in the core product?

I don't know the timelines but I've seen a preview of one. I'll pass along any info I can as soon as I get it (and I'm allowed to :)).

I can tell you we won't have a full featured browser client in V2. I can't yet make any statements about what will be in V2 as we won't get into that planning in earnest until we ship V1.

Sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

You may want to take a look at TeamPlain Web Access, it's not a SharePoint web part, but a stand alone web application with work item management, reporting, documents and more.
