Squadron moved to SharePoint CTO. Please visit by for latest version @
http://www.sharepointcto.com/Squadron/Default.aspx
Squadron is a SharePoint 2010 Utility Plugins application.
Following are the utility plugins inside Squadron.
1. User Profile plugin to generate User Profile information
2. My Site plugin to generate My Site information
3. Site Size plugin to generate Site Size information
4. WF Terminator to locate and terminate unwanted workflows
5. Stsadm command line environment
Context help can be invoked through the Help button for each Plugin selection.
Please note that in future more utility plugins will be added.
I kept the name as Squadron because I liked the meaning in Word Web as “Squadron: A cavalry unit consisting of two or more troops and headquarters and supporting arms”
