How ASP.NET solved a site licensing, maintenance nightmare

Glad to see an interesting case study like this:

When Random House and Infusion Development wanted to simplify the maintenance and reduce the licensing costs of the Web site associated with the CodeNotes book series, they ported the site from JSP to Microsoft ASP.NET with the help of Microsoft's new Java Language Conversion Assistant 2.0. After porting, they found that new site features are faster and easier to develop, and the site is easier to modify in ASP.NET. They closely monitored and documented their own porting experience and used that as the basis for a JSP to ASP.NET Migration Guide. The Migration Guide has been published as part of the ASP.NET developer content at http://msdn.microsoft.com/aspnet/.

The basic function of Web application can also be found at this new ASP.NET web site, e.g. SiteMapPath, Article, Forums, Chat (Under construction), Download... and more and I don't see any problem in the performance and loading speed so far (from a general user/visitor point of view). A relevant  JSP to ASP.NET Migration guide  is available too.
