Microsoft has released the first beta of the relational WinFS file system to MSDN subscribers. The final product is still scheduled to be released following Windows Vista. I'm relieved to see that they've already made this much progress, although I'm disappointed the this first beta is not Vista-compatible. I'll follow up with a later post with my first impressions after using WinFS for awhile.
