__doPostBack problems
The __dopostback bug Has a hotfix. Too bad I spent four hours last week trying to fix this for Verona. Grr.. In general, between the fact that PocketPC's IE can't understand ViewState correctly and this, I have begun always subclassing System.Web.UI.Page and running from that just so I can kludge fixes without having to change a million and a half objects.    -j.p
ServicedComponent
Jesse Complains about the fact that ServicedComponents are stateless. This is because of the underlying model. ServicedComponents are meant to be "chained" together (for example, multiple ServicedComponents to service a bank account or things like that). If you were to start building strong state into it; you would quickly run into ugly concurency issues. For a servicedComponent, you really want the context to control the state of whatever you are playing with.    j.p
Switching to Sharpreader...

See SharpReader; for more Info. Hopefully, the author of SharpReader will expose some API's so we can start to integrate in other functionality (like posting to DotNetWeblogs).
