The September 2015 Microsoft Hosting and Cloud Service Provider Newsletter is out.

There are three things of particular note; firstly, the launch of a new SPLA contract (SPLA 2016) on 1 December 2015 – the old contract may be used up to 1 March 2016. Then there’s a new format for the SPUR starting on 1 December 2015 where it will also start to be published monthly, and finally, if you’re interested in the Cloud Solution Provider program then there are workshops all around the world you can register for: http://bit.ly/1L4ENPf.
