Tag merge request for Microsoft Windows Small Business Server tags

Here is a list for Microsoft Small Business Server tags that do not mention version number:

Here is a list of all SBS tags that I can find which are version specific:

Let's come to an official conclusion about how to name these tags.

Generic SBS tag:

I propose be the official base tag for the product line. and should be merged into . "Microsoft" and "Windows" don't need to be in the tag. It is better served if that is a separate tag in the question, e.g. ("Microsoft" is too broad of a keyword and doesn't seem helpful).

Certainly, the words "small business server" can mean something other than the Microsoft Windows Small Business Server product, but I doubt too many people are going to be tagging a question about a small server for their business with and if they do, it can be retagged. Thoughts?

Version Specific Tags:

Either we petition for the tag length limit to be increased or we use the acronym "SBS" in the version specific tags. I propose that the nomenclature be SBS-[year]-[additional features]. So should be merged with . , while not existing yet, could just as may exist as well.

That means that a post about the Exchange instance running on a Small Business Server 2008 machine would most logically be tagged with and and possibly include and . Thoughts?

Summary:

Assuming what I laid out above is accepted, here is the course of action:

  1. Merge and into .
  2. Merge into .
  3. Merge into
