Question #1:

'Is WinFS dead?
Yes and No."

Well, thanks for clearing that up.

Whatever WinFS may have been, and that would depend which sources you
were listeningt to, is not shipping as a feature in any OS they are
willing to commit to, except maybe Cairo.

What was WinFS supposed to be anyway? A search engine to kill Google
Desktop, WIndows Desktop Search (formerly Apple Spotlight) or a new way
to add metatags onto any object within the filesystem? Did anyone here
have plans to use it? Killer apps to take advantage of it?

Good questions, Ted.  The answers are Yes and No, depending on who you
talk to.  I think if M$ knew the answers, we would be that much closer
to having WinFS in our hands.
