We're still waiting to be blown away, aren't we? Is it beta 2? Seems I haven't heard much about this lately..
You'll probably have a few extra minutes on your hands while waiting for VS Express to download . Do yourself another favor and check out the breaking changes in .NET Framework 2.0 [ BradA ]. The list is pretty small, considering the breadth of the framework...
While doing my first ASP.NET 2.0 "publish" tonight I was presented with the following dialog box: Assuming that apps delete as few items as possible, I assumed that "existing files" meant files that matched those that were being copied. I was wrong. It...
