Unlock new task management experiences with Microsoft Loop components in Outlook email, Teams chat.

Hi Rob...no sir.  For now, we have disabled Loop Components altogether.  Until we have a better understanding of where it fits in with the other tools, we're going to wait and see how the industry adopts it first.  We're having a difficult enough time of helping users understand when to use To Do, Planner, Project for the Web, Project for Operations, SharePoint Lists (yes...Microsoft says those can be used for task management too...unfortunately that can lead users to feel alienated...since they don't integrate with the Tasks App in Teams).  I also saw that Planner for personal use is also coming soon...so that even muddies up the water for To Do.  Project for the Web tasks are also supposed to come to the Tasks App in Teams in the near future.  Adding Loop Components just creates even more confusion...so we're holding off for now.  We might wait until they are integrated with OneNote...so that Loop Components for meetings can be centralized in a notebook...I think that will be sometime around February...that's another area where Loop Components just seems to create more confusion.  We also know that Loop is a requirement for Copilot...but we hit the brakes on that too.  I think Microsoft may have temporarily lost its way when it comes to thinking about "cohesion"...hopefully that becomes more of a focus in the future...because right now...end users are starting to doubt they have their best interests at heart.
