Quick Look at Some New Features

Skype for Business Co-Authoring  (Prerelease)

all photos via MSIgnite session “Overview of Skype for Business” around 11:05

Now Skype4B will open OneDrive and when the user selects a file, the Permissions will  be set based on Skype4B participants in the meeting.

The file now loads on all the participants machines. Also, those participating in the coauthor session will have a “Call Monitor” window with some new options like IM and a Skype4B button that lets them move and close the “Call Monitor” window. (below)

For scheduled meetings you can attach documents that will load on user machines when they join the meeting.
