The October 2005 (date built) release of Atlas is now available at http://atlas.asp.net. This new release replaces the Atlas Hands-On-Lab and Atlas Blank Project VSI files. We plan to release a new build on a roughly monthly schedule (with occasional exceptions).
This release aligns the 'Atlas' preview with the Visual Studio 2005 and ASP.NET 2.0 RTM release. It also contains a set of small changes and fixes based on feedback from the community that are highlighted below.
