--- The current plan of record is… Use 2013 versions… they still work!

• Profile Services FIM deprecated. New Options: Microsoft Identity Manager• No more Single Server deployment• STSADM deprecated• MinRoles requires some planning• Project Server 2016 Preview is installed with SharePoint Server 2016 IT Preview. • No “Free SharePoint” No SharePoint Foundation Release in 2016
