Delaware Release Preview has been released to web. Download the bits, documentation and the license file to kick off your evaluation of XenApp on Windows Server 2008. This will help with your Windows Server 2008 migration plans when we release the final build. Nearly 2000 customers and partners have registered for it and have been anxiously waiting.
Since this is Beta code, you might find some issues and hence please make sure you at least scan the Installation checklist and Readme. The easiest way to install the Release Preview is to follow the Quick Start guide. It is a step by step guide (with screen shots) to complete the installation. You will need a new/upgraded license server (version 11.5) and a new license file to evaluate this release. There is a support forum to discuss all issues related to this Release Preview.
Some functionality like Application Performance Monitoring enhancements (powered by EdgeSight), an updated IM, an updated Resource Manager etc is missing from this beta and should be available in the final release. Try the Release Preview and leave us your comments.

I noticed in the Getting Started with Citrix XenApp document, it specifically says that Installation Manager and Conferncing Manager are no more:
-Installation Manager is based on is no longer available for delivering packages of applications and resources. Citrix recommends using the XenApp application streaming feature for delivering applications and resources.
Can you confirm if Installation Manger will be included or removed from the shipping product?

This is mentioned in the Getting Started guide on page 38.
I have also released a second article about changes in the early release of Project Delaware which I have missed in the first post.
