New Resources on Migrating from VB6 to VB.NET

The MS Patterns and Practices team has come out with 2 new extensive resources on Migrating VB6 applications to VB.NET. 

The first is a  massive (over 700 page) Migration Guide, which was developed in conjunction with outside industry experts (eg. I worked primarily on the Data Access chapter, in addition to a few others). 

The second is the VB Migration Assessment tool, which will analyze your VB6 projects and present  you with a lot of metrics, including estimates of effort (time) and costs.

They can both be downloaded from here.    I'd love to hear any of your feedback on either of these resources.
