It has been a long time coming, but NJ will finally see the return of a SQL Server User Group. I’ve been trying to get this group going for about a year now, and the biggest hang-ups has been trying to get a location, and finding volunteers to help run...
While at this year’s XMLDevCon I came up with 2 VS.Net add-ins that I’d wanted to write and release as open source for .Net. I was withholding the ideas figuring that I would find time to write them, but it has been a couple months and I haven’t even...
Thom Robbins is a great guy, but unfortunately for him he has bumped into one of my major pet peeves, Viral Coding Examples with his Introducing the XmlTextReader post. It really isn’t his fault, since the code he uses is very similar to the code example...
Joe Fawcett (fellow XML MVP) came across a great example (from the Microsoft.Public.Xml newsgroup) of one of my biggest pet peeves, “We (the community) are doing a very poor job teaching the average developer how to use XML properly in .Net”. I want to...
Right after the N3UG meeting (with Dave Douglass’ presentation on Generics), we will have a special edition of the NJ Dev Dinner. What’s the occasion? Microsoft Developer Evangelist Kirk Allen Evans is coming up from Atlanta, GA, and will be in the area...

It is hard to believe, but it has been just over one year since XML DevCon 2003 . Because most of the subject mater was pretty ahead of its time for the common enterprise developer, I’m sure most of the people that read this blog either didn’t...
What started off as a quick how-to example of rehydrating business objects from data access layers (in reply to this Jay Kimble post ) morph’d into a whole lot more (thanks to Scott Hansleman’s DataSet post , and my thoughts on the topic ...
This is via Kurt Cagle (the man needs to get a real blog, and post regularly): A new Open Source project has been started to port Michael Kay's Saxon 8.0 (and hence XSLT2 and XPath2 at a minimum) to C#, at http://www.x2x2x.org/x2x2x/home/ . Kurt is concerned...
