On February 16, Microsoft will be disclosing the Office "12" SKU line-up, product branding, and some directional pricing information to the press.
The February 16 date is a press-focused event wherein the company will issue a press release and hold calls with members of the press. It is not directly a customer-facing activity on this particular date. The following types of information are to be disclosed:
-
New product names and enhanced Office logo and branding.
-
Office client SKU line-up and the individual products that are included in each edition.
-
Office server SKU line-up and the licensing/CAL information for each product, except RTC and Exchange.
-
Some directional pricing information.
This is the first time Microsoft will openly reveal information so early on in a product release cycle. The company aims to ensure that customers are aware of certain features, product branding and pricing in order to early adopt the product.
