Project Description
TFSBuildLab is a project to simplify the day to day operations when using automated builds and continuous integration with Visual Studio Team System.

This project handles common Team System issues such as:
Many of these issues are handled in the TFS 2008 release (http://download.microsoft.com/download/5/9/c/59cd0dc5-4691-4c3e-840c-66d865f27692/orcas-continuous-integration.xps), but for those out there using TFS 2005 TFSBuildLab is an easy way to handle build automation. We've also aimed to be as forward-compatible as possible so the features in TFSBuildLab will be very similar (conceptually atleast) to the ones in TFS 2008.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND 
MODIFICATION

0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a 
notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed 
under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program", below, 
refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" 
means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: 
that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it, 
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another 
language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in 
the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not 
covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of 
running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the 
Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on 
the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). 
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's 
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you 
conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate 
copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the 
notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any 
warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this 
License along with the Program.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and 
you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a 
fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion 
of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and 
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 
above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices 
stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.

b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in 
whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part 
thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties 
under the terms of this License.

c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when 
run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use 
in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement 
including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is 
no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that 
users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and 
telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if 
the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an 
announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print 
an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If 
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, 
and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in 
themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those 
sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you 
distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based 
on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of 
this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the 
entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote 
it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest 
your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to 
exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or 
collective works based on the Program.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the 
Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a 
volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other 
work under the scope of this License.

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, 
under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of 
Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:

a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable 
source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 
and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,

b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, 
to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of 
physically performing source distribution, a complete 
machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be 
distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium 
customarily used for software interchange; or,

c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to 
distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed 
only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the 
program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in 
accord with Subsection b above.)

The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for 
making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source 
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any 
associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to 
control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a 
special exception, the source code distributed need not include 
anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary 
form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the 
operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component 
itself accompanies the executable.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering 
access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent 
access to copy the source code from the same place counts as 
distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not 
compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program 
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt 
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is 
void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this 
License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from 
you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so 
long as such parties remain in full compliance.

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not 
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or 
distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are 
prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by 
modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the 
Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and 
all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying 
the Program or works based on it.

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the 
Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the 
original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject 
to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further 
restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted 
herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third 
parties to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent 
infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), 
conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or 
otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do 
not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot 
distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under 
this License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a 
consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, 
if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of 
the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly 
through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this 
License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under 
any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended 
to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other 
circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any 
patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any 
such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the 
integrity of the free software distribution system, which is 
implemented by public license practices. Many people have made 
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed 
through that system in reliance on consistent application of that 
system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is 
willing to distribute software through any other system and a 
licensee cannot impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to 
be a consequence of the rest of this License.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in 
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the 
original copyright holder who places the Program under this License 
may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding 
those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among 
countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates 
the limitation as if written in the body of this License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new 
versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new 
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may 
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program 
specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and 
"any later version", you have the option of following the terms and 
conditions either of that version or of any later version published 
by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a 
version number of this License, you may choose any version ever 
published by the Free Software Foundation.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free 
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the 
author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by 
the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; 
we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by 
the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our 
free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software 
generally.

NO WARRANTY

11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO 
WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. 
EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR 
OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY 
KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE 
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR 
PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE 
PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME 
THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN 
WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY 
AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU 
FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR 
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE 
PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING 
RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A 
FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF 
SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF 
SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS

How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs

If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest 
possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make 
it free software which everyone can redistribute and change under 
these terms.

To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest 
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively 
convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least 
the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

One line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify 
it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by 
the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at 
your option) any later version.

This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but 
WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of 
MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU 
General Public License for more details.

You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License 
along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software 
Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 
USA

Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.

If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like 
this when it starts in an interactive mode:

Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author Gnomovision 
comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show w'. This is 
free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain 
conditions; type `show c' for details.

The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the 
appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the 
commands you use may be called something other than `show w' and 
`show c'; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items--whatever 
suits your program.

You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or 
your school, if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the 
program, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:

Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the 
program `Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by 
James Hacker.

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your 
program into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine 
library, you may consider it more useful to permit linking 
proprietary applications with the library. If this is what you want 
to do, use the GNU Library General Public License instead of this 
License.
