Lync MVPs are a fountain of deep knowledge on Lync Server. But keeping up with the dozens of great articles they create each month can be a challenge. That’s where this monthly roundup comes in. From one easy place, you can now scan all Lync MVP articles published in English over the previous month and jump to those that interest you most.

In my role as NextHop project manager, I read a lot of great Lync blog articles each month, many of them written by our Lync MVPs. To help the Lync community keep up with the excellent content being written by Lync MVPs, we compiled their blogs on the NextHop Blog Roll page, under Lync MVP Blog Roll. Check it out.
Our plan with this new series is to compile the links to these articles in a monthly NextHop post, so that you have one easy place to get them all.
NOTE: If you are a Lync MVP and we missed you or one of your October articles in this roundup, please let us know in the Comments below.
