Microsoft is working to get its planned digital rights management (DRM) server into beta next summer and out the door by the end of 2003, company sources confirmed last week. The server, code-named Tungsten, is being handled by the Business and Productivity Services unit, which typically is responsible for client-focused software including Office and the newly announced OneNote (see related story page 10), although it also has responsibility for SharePoint Portal Server. The bulk of Microsoft's server software, including Content Management Server, Commerce Server and BizTalk Server, is handled by the .Net Enterprise Server group.
