Summary
The release notes for the Azure Connected Machine agent generally provide parity between Windows and Linux, listing features, fixes, and improvements for both platforms. However, there is evidence of mild Windows bias: Windows download links and version numbers are consistently listed before Linux, installer troubleshooting focuses on Windows (with PowerShell/Command Prompt instructions), and some improvements reference Windows tools (e.g., .ps1 scripts, msiexec). Linux-specific issues and enhancements are present, but Windows patterns and terminology are more prominent.
Recommendations
- Alternate the order of Windows and Linux download links and version numbers to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Include Linux installer troubleshooting steps and common commands (e.g., rpm, dpkg, systemctl) alongside Windows instructions.
- Where Windows tools/scripts are mentioned (e.g., ExtensionCleanup.ps1), clarify if Linux equivalents exist or note their absence.
- Ensure that bug fixes and improvements for both platforms are described with equal detail and visibility.
