What is not covered by the primitives?

And what does REFS stand for again?

So what about replacing large Exchange / SQL drives with REFS? That a use case?

What does REFRS lack  (if any) compared to NTFS today?

are there any special hardware requirements for REFS?

what is the expected ship date of 2016

  Chatroom Highlights

  Will Nano server be an installation option like Server Core or will it be a completely different SKU?

  are 3rd parties doing a better job of supporting core and nano?  They have been my biggest hindrance for running it in my Enterprise

  Will Nano support PowerShell?

  is there Open Stack integration?

  density

  Any plans to support nano on Rasberry Pi 2?

  The hardware that you are running Windows Server on today, will it support running Nano Server tomorrow?

  Can I use OneGet on nano? (packagemanagement module)
