Anyone who works with Office 365 knows that there is no shortage of new features rolling out, the pace at which new functionality is made available definitely keeps you on your toes.
Part of what inspired me to develop www.roadmapwatch.com is that I wanted to know more about when features progressed through the various stages on the official Office 365 Roadmap.

The Timeline

I never saw another mention of the feature or it’s rollout status.
