Is it possible to connect Visual Studio 2010 Professional edition to TFS (project hosted on Codeplex)?
This states, it is not included in Professional edition:
http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products
However, for VS 2008, there was separate download of Team Explorer and it was posible also for Professional version.
Is this changed for VS 2010?
Team Explorer is included in most editions of Visual Studio 2010. Try going to the View menu and if Team Explorer is listed then you have it installed.
If you do need to download Team Explorer then you can do so from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=fe4f9904-0480-4c9d-a264-02fedd78ab38
Note that TFS is licensed on a per-user basis on people connecting to the server needing to be covered by a Client Access License (CAL). If you have Visual Studio without an MSDN subscription then you also need to purchase a TFS CAL to be licensed to use TFS. (A new benefit of MSDN Subscriptions with the Visual Studio 2010 release is that all levels now include a TFS CAL as well as a full TFS license)
