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
