Microsoft Delays Patch Tools

摘要

Failing to deliver on promises to further simplify patching and software management, Microsoft last week delayed two key patching products and also said a new software management offering will not be available until the first half of 2005. At its Worldwide Partner Conference in Toronto, Microsoft said its WUS (Windows Update Services) patch management tool has slipped again. The tool, originally called SUS (System Update Services) 2.0, was supposed to ship earlier this year, but was pushed to the second half of 2004 in March.
