Where is my Microsoft Ajax 3.5 library standalone download?

Today I visited http://www.asp.net/ajax/downloads/ page to download standalone version of Microsoft Ajax 3.5 client library and used "Download the AJAX Library" button as I surely did many times previously. The landing page contained only the following: "This page has been removed. Please visit the ASP.NET Developer Center home page for further information." But I could not find any relevant "further information" on the ASP.NET Developer Center home page. Only a link to the same http://www.asp.net/ajax/downloads/ page I came from. Could someone explain me what happened to this download?

Perhaps this had something to do with it?

The download page says - AJAX functionality is integrated in ASP.NET 3.5 SP1 and does not require any additional downloads.

Older versions are here - www.asp.net/.../archive

Isn't AJAX 3.5 now included with the 3.5 framework?

Sanat,

Regarding your first comment,

No, CDN has nothing to do with download package of the library. In any case, as far as I can see, only the preview version of Microsoft Ajax library is currently hosted on the CDN.

As for integration with ASP.NET 3.5, then as I cleary wrote in my post I wanted to download STANDALONE version of Microsoft Ajax 3.5 client library. As I also mentioned in the post, the link to download standalone library is available (as it always has been) on the same download page. Please look at the second item on the page named, as I wrote, "Download the AJAX Library". It referres to msdn.microsoft.com/.../dd162267.aspx.

And no, I do not need older version.

rich,

The same as I've just answered. I wanted to download standalone version of Microsoft Ajax 3.5 library. The separate download of the client library was always available. And the question is why it is missing currently.

Hi guys, the direct link to the Microaoft Ajax Library 3.5 can be found here: go.microsoft.com/fwlink. We are still working out this issue with the MSDN Developer Center.
