Microsoft Releases Updated Vista Build

Microsoft over the weekend made available an updated build of Windows Vista, but only to a limited subset of testers in its Technology Adoption Partner (TAP) program. The interim release, numbered 5342, includes minor fixes and user interface tweaks, and is labeled an EDW build.

EDW, or External Developer Workstation, builds are made available more frequently than Community Technology Previews and have not gone through the same level of quality control. Typically such releases are designed to provide partners with changes they have requested during the beta process. The next public Vista release, the "Consumer CTP," is expected in late April or May.
