report by Mary Jo Foley, it could arrive by the end of the year as the company wants to stick to its schedule. In the words of Office Corporate Vice President Jeffrey Teper:

“We will continue with our on-premises releases of both SharePoint Server and Exchange Server on our traditional 2-3 year release cadence.”
Not all that much to go by, as far as hints go, really. But it would not be a surprise seeing a new version of Office released to coincide with the launch of Windows 9 in late 2014, maybe even early 2015. If it is in development, it ought to be out in time. Obviously, Microsoft is not known to comment on reports like these, so file this as a rumor, albeit of the credible and sound variety. The big question is what new features will be part of this new version? And will we finally see some completely touch optimized Metro Office applications?]]>

  • I hope they do some improvements to outlook. Outlook really needs it.

    • Quite agree, Seath. In fact, I hope they do a complete revamp, it’s about time, if you ask me. Keep the same base, but refresh the software in full.
