Sharepoint Templates

[John]

I just read an article that Microsoft released new Sharepoint templates.
Does anyone know anything about them? Can we use them with Project and
Sharepoint Server in any capacity? (I'm just looking for general
information, I have no specific usage or scenario in mind.)

My information came from:

John:

Microsoft has been providing SharePoint templates for a while, these come
under the category of "more." They've already posted a lot of good
SharePoint solution starters and will probably add more as time goes by.
Keep in mind that these are typically meant to get your solution up and
running faster. Whether or not you want to integrate these into your EPM
solution is purely your call.

Hi John,

You may find this link useful as Bil Simser a MVP for SharePoint has set up
an area on his site that allows you to preview the templates.

Hope this helps.

Thanks to both Amanda and Gary for the helpful info. I have not
experimented with any of the Sharepoint templates in our EPM, but as people
in our organization are starting to catch on to the concept of Sharepoint
and all of its various uses, I am sure that there will be requests for
different templates.

PS Amanda, thanks for the link. I am checking out the site as soon as I
finish this post.
