While evaluating Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2, I see that in the converted directory my vcproj files have become vcxproj files. There are also vcxproj.filter files alongside each project which appear to contain a description of the folder structure (\Source Files, \Header Files, etc.).
Do you think these filter files should be kept per-user or should the be shared across the whole dev group and checked into SCC?
My current thinking is to check them in but wondered if there's any reasons not to do that or perhaps good reasons that I should definitely check them in.
The obvious benefit is that the folder structures will match if I'm looking at someone else's machine but maybe they'd like to reorganize things logically??
