## Notes
14+
15+
* Working Groups
16+
* Congrats to community folks we've added to Engine, Cmdlet, and DevEx WGs
17+
* Created a Discord server for higher bandwidth conversations
18+
* Some aspects may be read-only or private still
19+
* PowerShell 7.2 preview 7
20+
* If all goes well 🤞, we'll be releasing today (otherwise, Monday)
21+
* `PSDesiredStateConfiguration` module not shipping in preview for first time
22+
* Not indicative of our investment in DSC, just to decouple lifecycles between
23+
PowerShell and DSC
24+
* v2 module shipping on Gallery, v3 module should be there very soon (if not already)
25+
* [Microsoft Update support](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/powershell/preview-updating-powershell-7-2-with-microsoft-update/)
26+
* Supports updates only from 7.2 preview 5 or 6
27+
* If you want to try this out, don't update to preview 7 manually!
28+
* Should be available in ~1 week (watch @PowerShell_Team for tweets)
29+
* Today, you need to add a reg key, but in the future this won't be necessary
30+
* Can also do a clean install with a different reg key if you have no preview at all
31+
* For this preview, we're currently only going back to Windows 10/Server RS3+
32+
* If you have a strong need for something earlier,
33+
please give us context on that in the discussion linked from the blog
34+
* PowerShellGet 3.0
35+
* Working on refactor of cmdlets and test coverage
36+
* Done with refactoring Get-InstalledPSResource, Uninstall-PSResource, and Publish-PSResource
37+
* Very close to Find-, Install-, Save- and Update-
38+
* Pushing to release in the next few weeks
39+
* Backwards compatibility is a top priority
40+
* Keep your eyes peeled for a blog post
41+
* DSC resource for PowerShellGet 3.0?
42+
* We include some resource in 3.0 today, but they made need to be refactored
43+
* Discussion on moving PSGet DSC resources out to their own module
44+
* File or comment on issues to let us know what you think about this!
45+
* VSCode extension
46+
* Just launched a [new stable release](https://devblogs.microsoft.com/powershell/powershell-for-visual-studio-code-may-2021-update/)
47+
* A lot of the work happening in `PowerShellEditorServices` to improve stability and performance
48+
* Check GitHub Projects for [Debug Reliability](https://github.com/PowerShell/vscode-powershell/projects/9)
49+
and [Startup Reliability](https://github.com/PowerShell/vscode-powershell/projects/8)
50+
* Even newer preview out as of today (6/17) to fix some issues in Windows PowerShell 5.1
51+
* Making some improvements to async
52+
* Lastly, will hook the debugger back up
53+
* Doubled our release cadence compared to the past 6 months!
54+
* We understand there's lots of new features folks are requesting,
55+
but the focus right now is still on stability and perf
56+
* Keep track of even more of our priorities with
57+
[GitHub Projects on `vscode-powershell`](https://github.com/PowerShell/vscode-powershell/projects)
58+
* Justin Grote demoing [PowerConfig](https://github.com/JustinGrote/PowerConfig)
59+
* Wrapper around ASP.NET Configuration
60+
* Takes input of YAML, JSON, TOML, PSD1 and more,
61+
and makes hashtables out of them
62+
* You simply pipe configuration file paths to PowerConfig cmdlets,
63+
and they'll be processed in the order you add them
64+
(including to clobber existing key/value pairs)
65+
* You can even add to the configs via environment variables!
66+
* Q&A
67+
* Should we lock all old and/or closed threads?
