So it has happened - Groove becomes Sharepoint Workspaces

sad for us old groovers to see the name go but this branding ensures that groove itself will not die or get less dev support that the big moneymaker - MS Office.

One of the "problems" face by groove was that the name did not communicate what funtion it performed - so people did not react positively when when one said use Groove - they had not heard about it and the name told them nothing.

does this diminish groove in any way - i think not - the SP marriage is a natural one and extends the power of both products.

cheers
