IIS7 in the press Already
Ruest and Ruest talk about here: http://www.ftponline.com/reports/vslivesf/2005/ruest/. My favorite part?
"In addition, the componentization of IIS will allow Microsoft to build the service onto a set of public application programming interfaces (APIs). Because the APIs will be public, they will allow third-party vendors to build their own functionalities into the Web server. And because each functionality is a specific component that can be added to or removed from IIS, these third-party add-ons will be completely transparent to the system."
Nice! That's going to enable a lot of stuff (both good and bad) to be done.
And if you're saying "Uh, its that what what good old ISAPIs did...?" likely your right. Of course, writing an either an Extension or Filter isn't all that easy or that transparent. It'll be interesting to see if this is just new asphalt on the old cow path or something truly "new and different."
