The [Microsoft MVP Award Program Blog](http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mvpawardprogram/archive/2015/10/01/welcome-nearly-1-000-new-and-renewed-mvps.aspx) says that, “these individuals were chosen because they have demonstrated their deep commitment to helping others make the most of their technology, voluntarily sharing their passion and real-world knowledge of Microsoft products with the community.” There are more than 100 million technical and social community member however, a very small portion are chosen to be recognized as MVPs. These individual are nominated by Microsoft, community members, or sometimes themselves. All “candidates are rigorously evaluated for their technical expertise, community leadership, and voluntary community contributions for the previous year.” InCycle is thrilled to recognize Daniel’s achievement as not only an MVP, but a valued member of our team! Daniel will be presenting a webinar on Release Management in TFS 2015 on October 29th at 9am PT / 12pm ET. Join us for all the exciting details!
