Stopping normalization on number that starts with plus sign (+)
Normalization in Microsoft Teams was not designed to do normalization when the phone number starts with plus sign (+) as documented, but we’ve never enforced this in the Teams desktop or Web client. We are planning to enforce this in the future but for now we recommend avoiding this pattern.
We are pleased to announce the extension of the resource-specific consent (RSC) permission model for chat and channel scope in Microsoft Teams. RSC permissions have been expanded to include the ability for chat members to grant access to chats for applications running within Teams.
When this will happen:
Content cameras can present analog whiteboard content digitally and appear in the Share menu in the meeting. Available with Teams Rooms Standard, Premium, and Pro licenses.
IT admins can choose the default meeting layout selecting Content only and Content+Gallery when content sharing begins. Standard, Premium, and Pro customers can also choose Front Row as the default layout.
With the launch of the new webinar experience, we introduced a new events policy.
In order to ensure smooth transition to the new webinar experience, we temporarily continued the old webinar policy setting of AllowMeetingRegistration in controlling the availability of the new webinar. Now with successful introduction of the new webinar, we will be decoupling the settings that control the availability of the old (via AllowMeetingRegistration in meeting policy) and the new (via AllowWebinar in events policy) webinar.

For events such as personal appointments, lunch break slots on calendar, and in-person meetings, you can now create a true appointment in Teams calendar by turning off the online toggle for a meeting.
What to expect: By default, all meetings created from teams will be teams online meeting. The toggle is currently available only for private meetings and appointments. Offline events will not create chat thread and other teams meeting artifacts that are tightly coupled with teams’ online meetings.
We are making some changes to Watermark Premium Policies for licensed Teams Premium users.
Users will soon have the ability to utilize watermarks on shared content and video feeds without the need to establish watermark policies via the Teams Admin Center or PowerShell.
Users can make one-to-one calls between Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows and VTC endpoints enabling ad-hoc video calls across services.? The Teams Rooms platform enables Cloud Video Interop (CVI) partners to offer this feature for Teams Rooms Pro licensed customers.
Please check with your CVI partner for availability.
