I have been unable to locate any information on compatibility with Visual Studio 2003 or 2005. I currently have TFS 2010 working correctly with Visual Studio 2008, but we have some developers with Visual Studio 2003 and 2005 instances.

You'll need to install a Forward Compatibility Update and even then not all features of 2010 are supported. You can find out more on the Team Foundation Server blog here: http://blogs.msdn.com/team_foundation/pages/compat-matrix-for-2010-rtm-team-foundation-server-to-team-explorer-2008-and-2005.aspx

I see the Forward Compatibilty update for VS 2005, but not for 2003. I don't even see VS 2003 listed in his compatibilty matrix. Any idea if it will function even with limited features?

JustinB: VS2003 does not integrate with any version of TFS.

JustinB: VS2003 uses MSSCCI. There is a 2010 MSSCCI Power Tool that you can download and install. You'll see info on it at the bottom of the link provided.

To use VS 2003 you'll have to install the MSSCCI provider. It's only a release candidate at the moment though.
