    Edit and Continue Madness

    No Edit and Continue in C# is all the madness now.

    The C# team has all kinds of other stuff they work on that is probably more important than E 'n' C, but I'm still with everyone that is all for it in C#.  However, productivity has never really seemed to be the main focus of C#, so it makes sense that something that can help you save time not getting in there is appropriate.  ;)

    I am constantly searching for reasons to use C# (other than translating all my demos), but alas...it appears Whidbey will help me reaffirm my faith in VB.NET.  Not just because of E 'n' C not being in C#, but because of all the cool and great new items that are going to be in VB.NET  :D

    As Juval points out on the latest .net rocks, C# is aimed at developers who are more concerned with longterm matinence costs, VB is aimed at devs who want to sling out code as fast as possible. I guess we know which camp you're in ;-).

    Absolutely not!

    I just don't like to do everything the hardest and slowest way possible!
